Chili-Dusted Avocado Potatoes

2 large russet (baking) potatoes
2 tsp canola oil
3/4 tsp chili powder
1/8 tsp salt
4 slices low fat turkey bacon
1 avocado cut into 16 slices
1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese
1/4 cup fat free sour cream (optional)
hot pepper sauce to taste (optional)

Coat baking sheet with foil and spray.  Cut each potato into 4 slices and trim so that each piece lays flat.  Rub each slice evenly with olive oil and sprinkle with chili powder and salt.  Cook potatoes until tender and can easily be pierced with a fork.  Meanwhile cook turkey bacon and when cooked set aside on a plate.  When potatoes are tender top each piece with half a slice of turkey bacon, 2 slices of avocado and 1 tablespoon of cheese.  Leave in the oven for a few minutes until cheese is melted.  Top with sour cream and hot sauce if desired.
