Introduction: Easy Dorm Room Taco Bowl
Hello! Welcome to Dorm Room Cooking. I am a college student with a mediocre dining hall who has had to learn to make nutritious and tasty meals in my dorm room using minimal supplies.
Supplies
For this recipe, I used a rice cooker, an air fryer, and a microwave.
Step 1: Getting Started
To begin, I got together my ingredients: flour tortillas, one can of black beans, a container of firm, ready-to-eat tofu, an avocado, some taco seasoning, cheese, and your favorite assortment of vegetables.
Step 2: Prepare the Tofu
First I drained my tofu and patted it dry with a paper towel.
Step 3: Making the Rice
Then, I added one cup of jasmine rice to 1 and 1/4 cups of water in my rice cooker and set it up in the cooker for about 30 minutes.
Step 4: Taco "meat"!
Then, I returned to my tofu. I cut it into bite-size cubes and sprinkled my taco seasoning on top. The tofu can also be crumbled for a consistency more like taco meat. Then, I flipped the pieces and seasoned the other side before putting them into the air fryer. I set my tofu up to cook for 10 minutes on 380º, but depending on the air fryer more or less time may be necessary. I recommend checking it every 3-5 minutes until cooked to taste.
Step 5: Last Ingredients
Next, I cut my avocado and microwaved my black beans for 2 one minute intervals, stirring in between.
Step 6: Put It Together!
Finally, I put everything together!
