🥛Milk🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For a nut-free version, leave out the toasted nuts and add extra seeds or herbs for crunch. For dairy-free or vegetarian-friendly needs, swap the creamy elements and hard cheese for plant-based alternatives that keep the sauce smooth and savory.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp green salad and warm garlic bread to round out the creamy, spicy flavors. A chilled white wine or sparkling water with lemon also works well to balance the richness.
