If they and you like spicy food, I recommend a black bean chili.
sheafrotherdon has a recipe (with pictures!) that sounds delicious over here, although I confess I haven't tried it yet.
I make my black bean chili like this:
1 small onion, chopped 2-3 cloves garlic, minced 1-2 or more tsp chili powder (to taste -- go easy if you don't like too much spice) extra hot pepper if you like it hot a few shakes of salt
2 cans black beans 2 cans diced tomatoes (I used fire roasted) 1 chipotle pepper (in adobo sauce), minced
cilantro for garnish grated muenster cheese for garnish
Saute the onions and garlic until soft. Add chili powder and stir to coat. Add tomatoes and their juice. Cook briefly. Add black beans. Cook about 20-30 minutes on low-ish heat, stirring occasionally, until the flavors are blended and the chili is thick. Add salt, a dash of rice vinegar, and/or extra spice to taste.
To serve, put a few spoonfuls of cheese in the bottom of a bowl and ladle chili on top. Garnish with cilantro sprigs and eat.

Goes really well with corn bread.
