Tink's Spicy Beef & Black Bean Tacos image

Getting ready for two weeks of family staying with us I wanted to clean out the fridge to make room for the new ingredients I would be buying. We'd only just had tacos but still had taco stuff to use up so I added the last chipotle pepper & a can of black beans to make tonight's tacos seem different & instead of "Clean out the fridge night, Huh?" I got, "Wow! These are awesome!" I don't want to forget what I did because this flavor blows any taco seasoning or drive through flavors right out of the water. Feel free to substitute ground turkey for the beef and top the tacos with any additional toppings you like or have on hand.

I'm not a fan of black beans, but I really enjoyed these tacos. The beef was cooked perfectly and the overall flavor was great.

These tacos were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.
