🥛Milk🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For a lighter dairy option, use reduced-fat cheddar and lower-fat milk; the dish will still stay creamy and comforting. To avoid wheat, use gluten-free pasta and gluten-free breadcrumbs, and for a milk-free version choose unsweetened plant milk plus a meltable dairy-free cheese.
What to serve with it
Serve with a simple green salad or steamed broccoli to add freshness and balance the rich, cheesy pasta. Warm crusty bread or garlic toast also works well if you want a more filling dinner spread.
