Chicken Flautas

I was craving my fav Mexican dish, flautas. I just threw together my classic shredded chicken recipe with some adobo seasoning, peppers and onion. I then took it to next level and made some guacamole to top em with.  I was really impressed at how good these came out and how simple it was.
