🥛Milk🌱Soy🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For dairy-free diners, swap the sour cream and cheese for plant-based versions that melt and spoon well. To avoid wheat or gluten, use corn tortillas instead of flour tortillas, and choose a gluten-free spice blend if needed.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp green salad, extra pico-style tomato salsa, or simple black beans to round out the spicy, saucy enchiladas. Lime rice or roasted corn also works well if you want a fuller plate without competing with the bold flavors.
