It’s fall. It said so on the calendar last Friday. But for those of you who just can’t let go of tomato season, this recipe is perfect. You get to feel summery with the addition of cherry tomatoes and yellow pepper, but keep things comforting with cumin, creamy avocado, hearty black beans and cheese.
