Notes
This recipe calls for spreadable cheese; however, you can replace it with the following:
- Hummus is full of protein. It is a perfect, dairy-free alternative to spreadable cheese.
- Plain Greek Yogurt can be used similar to sour cream. They have similar flavor and texture. Plus, my kids cannot tell the difference.
- Ranch is always a favorite sauce. If you are looking for a healthy ranch alternative, combine ranch dressing mix with plain Greek yogurt.
- Salad dressing, such as vinaigrette, can be added instead.
