🥛Milk🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For dairy-free, use a plant-based butter and skip the cheese or choose a vegan alternative. For nut-free, leave out the sliced nuts and add extra crisp crumbs on top; for gluten-free, use gluten-free pasta and breadcrumb swap.
What to serve with it
Serve with a simple green salad or roasted broccoli to balance the pasta’s richness and spice. Warm garlic bread also fits well if you want a heartier meal, though the dish is already filling.
