Swaps and substitutions

For dairy-free needs, swap the sour cream for a plain unsweetened plant-based yogurt or a tahini-lemon sauce. To avoid tree nuts, replace the pistachios with toasted sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds for similar crunch.

What to serve with it

Serve with warm pita, a crisp cucumber salad, or roasted vegetables to round out the spiced grains and chickpeas. A simple mint tea or sparkling lemon drink also fits the bright, savory flavors.
