Remove excess oil from shells by patting dry with paper towels. Place equal amounts of ground beef mixture on tortilla shells. Spread 1/2 cup sour cream on top of ground beef mixture. Top with 2/3 cup shredded cheese. Place shell under broiler to melt cheese. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomato, and sliced ripe olives. Pour 1/4 cup salsa on top and finish off with a dollop of guacomole (recipe below) and 3 to 4 slices of avocadoes. Guacomole: Remove peel and seed from avocado and slice. In large bowl, mash avocado slices with fork. Add salsa and sour cream. Blend well; adding salt and pepper to taste. For a spicier guacomole substitute 1 to 2 tablespoons of jalapeno juice.
