– 1 cup plain Greek yogurt or sour cream (≈ 240 g)
– 8 medium tortillas (flour or corn)
– 3 × 6‑oz cans lump crab meat, drained (≈ 510 g total)
– 1 × 15‑oz can Great Northern beans, rinsed and drained (≈ 425 g)
– 3 cups shredded Pepper Jack cheese (≈ 340 g)

Notes
🥑 Tip: Toss diced avocado with a splash of lime juice before adding it to keep the color bright and add extra zing.
🔥 Tip: If you prefer milder heat, substitute Monterey Jack for Pepper Jack cheese.
🌽 Tip: Use corn tortillas for a gluten‑free version; they hold up well after a brief dip in warm water before rolling.
