🥛Milk🌱Soy🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For dairy-free, swap the sour cream and cheese for plant-based versions or skip the crema and add more lime and salsa for brightness. For gluten-free, use corn tortillas or tostada shells instead of wheat tortillas; for soy-free, choose a spice blend and paste without soy-derived additives.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp cabbage slaw, extra lime wedges, and a simple side of rice or corn to stretch the meal and balance the rich filling. A light beer, sparkling water with citrus, or an extra spoonful of fresh salsa works well too.
