Spicy and creamy Sriracha Ranch Black Bean Tacos are way better than your average black bean tacos.  They make a fabulous meatless family dinner.

Sriracha Ranch Black Bean Tacos

Sometimes I just can’t explain my thought process. Or cravings.  But one day I just had to have some mashed black beans with ranch and Sriracha smothered in melted cheese, and while I was chowing down I realized that it would be equally fantastic served on tortillas, like tacos. So that is exactly what I did here.

I have two kids who are chronically averted to anything spicy, so I kept the Sriracha to a minimum when I make it for family dinner.  But if you don’t have that issue, go crazy with it and add as much as your taste buds desire.
