Avocado Chicken Pitas

I routinely will make a whole chicken in the crockpot and use the chicken for various meals throughout the week - this is a good one that's quick, easy and good.

4 - Whole Pita Breads
2 Tbs - Olive Oil
1 - Medium Ripe Avocado (pitted/peeled)
1 Tbs - Lemon Juice
1/4 tsp - Salt
1/4 tsp - Garlic Powder
1/8 tsp - Hot Pepper Sauce (or Frank's)
3/4 lb - Cooked Chicken (cut into strips)
1 - Medium Tomato (chopped)
2 cups - Shredded Cheese (I use Cheddar)

Brush one side of each pita bread with oil and place on ungreased baking sheet.  Bake at 350 for 12-15 minutes or until browned and crisp.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl - mash the avocado with lemon juice, salt, garlic powder and hot pepper sauce.  Spread over pitas.  Layer with chicken, tomato and cheese.  Bake for 5-6 minutes or until cheese is melted.
