Chili beans
Hi everyone,

While reorganizing my cupboards, I find I've got scads of chili beans. Scads for one person, anyway. What other way might I use these chili beans other than in chili? Is there anything? They're the mild flavor from Brooks. I've just no clue and, even though I like chili, don't like it well enough to use all these beans! Thanks!

2. give some to a food bank
Someone else might not even have a can of beans in their cupboard. You'll feel good, too.

6. Put em in taco shells
with the usual grated cheese, lettuce, tomato and salsa toppings.

Put 'em in flour tortillas with grated cheese and salsa for burritos.

Put 'em on tortilla chips with grated cheese, olives, and chopped onion for nachos.
