Sub diced green chilies or bell pepper or a combination of both for the jalapeño peppers.

Pork skins – They are fluffier than pork rinds, also known as chicharron and they usually weigh about 2 ounces. You can omit them completely and make with just the cheese topping with cooked & crumbled bacon.

Or, sub them with some lime nachos, french’s fried onion rings, garlic pita chips crushed with the butter and cheese.

For the mayo, use plain yogurt instead.
