🥛MilkSwaps and substitutions
For dairy-free, swap the sour cream and cheese for plant-based versions, or use extra salsa and avocado for creaminess. For milder heat, choose a gentle salsa and a less spicy cheese, while keeping the beans and rice unchanged.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp cabbage slaw, sliced avocado, or a simple green salad to balance the spicy, creamy flavors. Tortilla chips or warm corn tortillas also work well for extra crunch and a more filling plate.
