Preheat oven to 375°F. To make tortilla bowls, coat the inside of 4 oven-safe bowls with cooking spray; gently press tortillas inside bowls. Place bowls on baking sheet; bake for 12 to 14 minutes or until lightly browned and crisp. (Check tortillas after 5 minutes and reshape if necessary). Transfer to rack; let cool. Note: Tortilla bowls can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.

Creamy Avocado Lime Dressing: In food processor, combine avocado, yogurt, mayonnaise, lime juice, garlic, salt and pepper; process until smooth. Transfer to bowl and set aside.

In large skillet, heat oil over medium heat; cook onion and chili powder for about 4 minutes or until onion is softened. Stir in beans, corn and salsa; simmer for 10 minutes, stirring often. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

To assemble: Layer bean filling, avocados, lettuce, tomatoes, Cheddar, cilantro and green onions among tortilla bowls. Drizzle with Creamy Avocado Lime Dressing.
