🥛Milk🌱Soy🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For a dairy-free version, use a plant-based sour cream and cheese alternative, or skip the crema and add more lime for brightness. To avoid gluten, swap the flour tortillas for certified gluten-free tortillas; for soy avoidance, choose a taco seasoning or paste without soy-based ingredients.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp slaw, pico de gallo, or a simple corn salad to add freshness and balance the rich, cheesy filling. A side of rice, tortilla chips, or extra lime wedges works well for a heartier plate.
