🥛Milk🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For a dairy-free version, use a plant-based cream sauce and meltable cheese alternative in place of the creamy and cheese elements. To avoid wheat, swap the pasta for a gluten-free shape, and for milder heat, use less jalapeño while keeping the bell pepper and corn.
What to serve with it
Serve it with a crisp green salad, lime wedges, or a simple tomato salsa to balance the rich, cheesy pasta. Warm tortilla chips or roasted vegetables also make a good side if you want a heartier plate.
