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.
