Shredded lettuce
Diced tomato

Cook onion in hot oil until transparent. Stir in tomatoes and green chilies and oregano. Simmer 20 minutes or until very thick; keep warm.

Cut cheese into 12 strips. Place one strip cheese in each taco shell. Arrange on baking sheet. Bake, uncovered, in 350 deg F. preheated oven for 7-8 minutes, or until cheese starts to melt. Top cheese with a spoonful of tomato and chilies mixture, an avocado slice, lettuce and tomato, and a dollop of sour cream.
