🥛Milk🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For dairy-free, swap the cheese and sour cream for plant-based alternatives or skip them and add avocado for creaminess. For gluten-free, use corn tortillas or gluten-free wraps instead of wheat tortillas, keeping the rest of the filling the same.
What to serve with it
Serve with extra crisp salad leaves, sliced avocado, or a simple corn side to balance the rich bake. A cool salsa, pickled onions, or lime wedges also work well to brighten the spicy, cheesy flavors.
