I've seasoned canned black beans (rinsed until they don't foam anymore) and brown rice with just about everything in my pantry, but I think the classic treatment is a little bit of butter, some salt and pepper, and some sharp, sharp cheddar. Sauteed carrots and celery welcome.
Other things I've done to black beans (with rice and some olive oil): Cilantro paprika chili powder cumin coriander vinegar (cider or rice) mustard Avocado sundried tomato black olives (green for the white beans) feta red peppers basil oregano
White and garbanzo beans are really good with cilantro, mayo, pickles, and/or sesame seeds. I think they're more willing to play with celery or peas than carrots, which go really well with black beans.
I'm going to stop myself before I go on all night.
My go-to lunch is brown rice + beans + oil with Stuff on top.
