🥛MilkSwaps and substitutions
For a lighter dairy-free version, swap the sour cream and pepper jack for plant-based alternatives or skip the cheese garnish entirely. To make it vegetarian, replace the ground beef with black beans or lentils; if needed, use vegetable stock instead of beef-style seasoning.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp green salad, extra lime wedges, and warm tortillas or chips to round out the spicy, hearty filling. A cool avocado salsa or simple cucumber slaw also balances the richness and adds freshness.
