Fry off onions, garlic and a chopped fresh tomato, in some olive oil of course, add half a tub of fake philly (cheapy cream cheese) let it melt nicely, add a few chopped mushrooms, some defrosted frozen shrimp, and tons of broad beans... simmer nicely...

Re: Broad Bean glut
They can be roasted and salted and eaten like crisps. I haven't tried doing this (having harvested less than a pound of beans so far, and no prospect of more as the flowers succumbed to wind and rain ) but I've bought them in bags (just like crisps) which have a long shelf life, so I imagine they'd store pretty well like this.
