Chicken Quinoa Casserole - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup quinoa (cooked)
    3 cups white meat chicken (cooked and cubed)
    1 (7 ounce) can mushrooms (drained)
    1 (15 1/2 ounce) can black beans (drained and rinsed)
    spices, depending on how the chicken was cooked
    1 tablespoon olive oil (optional)
Preparation
    Cook the Quinoa according to the package directions.
    Cut up the cooked chicken into small chunks.
    Open and drain a small can of mushrooms ( or use fresh if you have!).
    Open and drain the can of black beans ( I rinse them in cold water briefly).
    If you need or want to, add whatever spices you like: garlic, paprika, pepper etc.
    If it looks a little dry- a drizzle of olive oil will help.
    Mix it all together in a casserole dish and serve. If some ingredients are cold, you may want to heat the whole thing up either in a low oven or in a saucepan on the stove before serving. I also sometimes zap it all in the microwave to heat everything through.
