Buffalo Chicken Taco's

I got this recipe off a bag of flour tortilla's one day and it turned out great and was very easy. I am not a huge fan of spicy foods but these are easily made mild or very hot by the amount of hot sauce you add. They are very easy and super yummy. They are a great summer meal to do on the grill. Enjoy!


To make ours a little healthier and cheaper I do not combine the avocado and ranch we just put a few dabs of ranch straight on the taco if desired. I also do not do carrots, cilantro or blue cheese instead I do cheddar cheese shredded, diced cucumbers and diced tomatoes. Really you can make it however you like according to what your family prefers. I usually add mexican rice and black beans as sides.
