Finally used up all those random beans in my pantry after 4 months

Last week I grabbed every half-used bag of dried beans I had sitting around - black beans, chickpeas, lentils, even some pinto beans from a camping trip. Threw them all in a pot with some onion and garlic I had on hand. Made a huge batch of mixed bean soup that lasted me 5 days. Cost me basically nothing since I already had everything. Anyone else got a good way to use up partial bags of grains or beans?

Mixed bean soup is my go-to" - man, I actually hate how random beans cook at totally different speeds so you end up with mushy lentils next to rocks-hard chickpeas. I'd rather just pick one type and cook it right.

Mixed bean soup is my go-to for that exact situation.
