Preparation
 

First, place the lettuce, avocado, onion, cucumber and carrot in your salad bowl. Next, cut the cooked tempeh strips into small pieces and the tofu into small cubes and then, add these to the bowl. Assemble the rest of the ingredients in a separate bowl, and mix thoroughly. The dressing may be poured over the salad before tossing, or the salad can be tossed naked, with the dressing remaining on the side. Serve in bowls or on plates, and be well!
