🥛Milk🌱SoySwaps and substitutions
For dairy-free, swap the smoky crema for a plant-based sour cream or plain dairy-free yogurt. For vegetarian or soy-free needs, replace the chicken with roasted tofu, chickpeas, or seared mushrooms while keeping the rice and toppings.
What to serve with it
Serve with black beans, warm tortillas, or a crisp side salad to stretch the bowl into a fuller dinner. A wedge of lime and extra salsa on the side add brightness and balance the smoky, savory flavors.
