🥛Milk🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For a dairy-free version, skip the sour cream, cream cheese, and cheese blend, then finish with extra lime and herbs for brightness. To avoid wheat, use gluten-free pasta; for a lighter plate, try ground turkey or plant-based crumble in place of beef.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp green salad, roasted corn, or warm tortillas to balance the spicy, creamy pasta. A chilled lime soda or light lager also works well alongside the bold taco flavors.
