⚠️Allergens:
🥛Milk🦐Shellfish🌱Soy🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For dairy-free, use a plain unsweetened plant-based yogurt or sour cream alternative in place of the creamy topping, and skip the cheese or use a melty vegan version. For gluten-free, swap in certified gluten-free tortillas; for shellfish-free, replace the shrimp with seasoned mushrooms, tofu, or jackfruit.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp green salad, cilantro-lime rice, or black beans to balance the rich, cheesy filling. Chips with extra salsa or guacamole also make it feel more like a Baja-style spread.
