Place the ratatouille, kidney beans and taco seasoning in a large frying pan over medium heat, and cook, stirring, for 10 minutes or until heated through.
Meanwhile, place the avocado in a bowl and use a fork to mash until smooth. Add the lemon juice, green shallot and Tabasco sauce and stir until well combined. Combine the tomato, coriander and oil in a small bowl.
