Step 1
Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat and lightly spray with olive oil.

Warm the corn tortillas in the skillet for 20-30 seconds on each side until they are soft and pliable. Transfer them to a serving plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm.

Step 5
Add the tomatoes, red onion, and cilantro to the mashed avocado and mix gently to combine.
Step 6
Halve the lime and squeeze the juice into the avocado mixture. Add the chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine and adjust seasoning to taste.

Divide the avocado mixture evenly among the warmed tortillas.
Step 8
Top each taco with a sprinkle of crumbled cotija cheese.
