🥛MilkSwaps and substitutions
For a dairy-free version, swap the sour cream and cheese for unsweetened plant-based alternatives or a spoon of avocado for creaminess. If you want less heat, choose a mild spice blend and use extra tomato or onion for flavor instead.
What to serve with it
Serve with tortilla chips and a simple green salad to add crunch and freshness beside the spicy, saucy bowl. A side of black beans or grilled corn also fits the Tex-Mex flavors without weighing it down.
