- For a spicier version, add chopped jalapeños or a few dashes of hot sauce.
- You can also make it ahead of time and reheat before serving.
- Substitute vegan cheese + vegan sour cream for a dairy-free version.
If you want, I can give a microwave 5-minute version that’s gooey, cheesy, and ready in a flash without baking.
