🥛Milk🌱Soy🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For dairy-free, skip the sour cream or use a plain plant-based yogurt instead. If you avoid soy, replace the plant-based protein with another meatless crumble that’s soy-free; for wheat-free, make sure the spice blend and paste are certified gluten-free.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp green salad, charred corn, or tortilla chips to add crunch and freshness. A cool drink like lime agua fresca or a light lager balances the smoky, spicy flavors nicely.
