besides 
(cause I already use them in that)
they're really tasty! But since you can only buy them by the can I'd like to have multiple things I can make them with/ways to use them

Can? Are they in oil? I usually get chipotles dry, as they are hust dried and smoked red jalapenos.
But either way you can make chili bases that are friendly with oil. Make a salsa roja with chipotle. Make salsa macha. Make red chili sauce base (heat and blend smooth in oil), you can make many dishes with it including classic enchiladas (doesn't even need a filling - just tortillas and sauce).
I dont think i've seen dried where I shop but I'll look again, all of what I found at my store was the kind that come in a can with adobo. But I know there are a lot of dried pepper varieties available (which I would also like to learn to cook with) so I might have missed just missed them
those are great ideas, thanks! Sadly I don't have a blender so I can't make all of the recipes in this thread, although I would like to. I would really love to get a small batch food processor eventually. I think I would put it to good use tbh.
A big mortar and pestle is the old way, if you have one of those!
With adobo means you basically have a complex chutney with way more than chilis in it. I'd use it as condiment or a way to add flavor to something savory I'm cooking like a soup or soy curls.
