🥛Milk🌱Soy🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For dairy-free, swap the crema and cheese for a plant-based sour cream and vegan melt. For gluten-free, use corn tostadas or another certified gluten-free base instead of the flour shells, and choose a soy-free spice blend if needed.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp cabbage slaw, extra lime wedges, or a simple avocado salad to add freshness and balance the rich, savory toppings. A cold Mexican lager, sparkling water with citrus, or light rice on the side also works well.
