These soft and spicy beans are a lot like the best possible version of a vegetarian chili, with earthy black beans standing in for the usual pinto or kidney beans. The roasted green chiles add both smokiness and heat, and are worth the extra steps of charring and peeling. Serve this over rice or with warm tortillas.
