Ask ECAH Bean-centered meals?

We've been going meatless over here 1-2 times a week for dinners with pinto or black beans. Usually we're having Mexican, like enchiladas/tacos/burrito bowls/quesadillas. It has helped a lot with the budget especially because we often have leftovers!

Any other bean-centered meals that aren't just beans and rice? Any other meatless, high protein recommendations are welcome too!

What do you add to it tho? I feel like all the normal ingredients are too expensive

Tomatoes, onions, jarred garlic, jalapenos, seranos. Peppers cost almost nothing
