You could try mining cryptonight coins such as darknote or monero. I don't know if you will be able to cover your electricity costs (it all depends), but at least you will be able to mine something in satoshis compared to what you would get if you were just mining satoshis themselves...
For more info look
here. This is a mining pool for cryptonight coins (among other coins)
The competition for those popular alt cons is pretty high and the difficulty is quite high too. You need free electricity to profit from it. The exchange fees from alt coins to BTC is also quite high, deposit then withdrawal would incur some fees too. Unless you want to keep it permanently in that specific alt coin.
