Tofu "tuna" And White Bean Salad

The manner of God’s revealing His will to men is (also) very different. Some have had special, personal, and peculiar discoveries of it made to them. So had Samuel about the choice of the person whom he should anoint king… But now, all are tied up to the ordinary standing rule of the written Word, and must not expect any such extraordinary revelations from God. The way we now have to know the will of God concerning us in difficult cases, is to search and study the Scriptures, and where we find no particular rule to guide us in this or that particular case, there we are to apply general rules.

INSTRUCTIONS

SERVINGS DAIRY-FREE  In Italy, tuna and white beans are a classic salad
combination. Here  we use baked, marinated tofu in place of the tuna
with wonderful  results. A light pasta dish makes a nice accompaniment
to this salad  In large serving bowl, combine all ingredients except
lettuce and  toss to mix.  To serve, arrange 2 or 3 lettuce leaves on
each plate and spoon some  salad over them.  PER SERVING: 135 CAL.; 10G
