Why it works

  • Wheat allergy: Corn tortillas stand in for wheat tortillas, with no flour or breadcrumbs anywhere.
  • Milk allergy: Lime, garlic and cumin bring the flavor instead of cheese or cream.
  • Gluten-free: Corn tortillas are labeled gluten-free and every other ingredient is naturally so.
  • Dairy-free: Olive oil keeps the turkey juicy and the tortillas blistered, no butter needed.
