This favorite main-dish salad traditionally calls for diced chicken or
turkey, crisp-cooked bacon and chopped hard-boiled eggs. Avocado, another
common ingredient, has been retained in this version. The eggs have been
eliminated, and of course the meats have been replaced with healthful
soy-based analogs. Look for baked marinated tofu and soy deli slices in
well-stocked supermarkets or natural food stores.

MEAL PLAN: Put on a big pot of water to boil. Cook some corn on the cob
while preparing the salad. Cook four extra ears to use in the rice salad
later in the week. Serve the cobb salad with whole-grain bread and the
corn. For dessert, offer sweet berries in individual dishes topped with a
dollop of frozen vanilla yogurt.

Crisp-cook soy "bacon" according to package directions. Remove to cutting
board. When cool enough to handle, cut into 1/2-inch pieces. In large
bowl, combine soy "bacon" and tofu. In small bowl, toss avocado with
lemon juice, then add to tofu mixture along with tomatoes and lettuce.
Add dressing, toss to coat and serve.
