🥛Milk🌱Soy🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For a dairy-free version, swap the sour cream and cheese for plant-based alternatives, keeping in mind the topping will be less rich. To avoid wheat, use corn tortillas; for soy-free needs, choose a spice blend and sauce base that do not include soy ingredients.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp romaine salad, black beans, or cilantro-lime rice to round out the meal and balance the spicy, saucy filling. A simple corn side, pickled onions, or extra fresh lime makes a bright finish without competing with the enchiladas.
