Place 1 of the flour tortillas on a platter. Spread with 1/2 of the chicken mixture. Spread 1/2 of the avocado dip onto a second tortilla; place avocado side up, atop chicken. Sprinkle with 1/2 of the lettuce. Top with a 3rd torilla; spread with half of the beans. Top with another tortilla; add 1/2 each of the sour cream, red pepper, green onions, and cheese.
