I Googled the Whole Foods mock chicken salad because I figured it had to have a cult following. This website below came up first. The author, Judith, describes this stuff as "orgasmically tasty"! Wow! Orgasmic? That's pretty high praise. I liked it, but I didn't cream my jeans or anything. Needless to say, the recipe is here. I'm making it for my next party and inviting every woman I know over.

I met my old neighbor, Derek, for dinner at a good Thai place called Spoon http://spoonatlanta.com/ It's in Ormewood Park near East ATL and my old stomping grounds. Ironically, Derek's wife, Liz, used to invite me over for dinner all the time for vegetarian meals. I was always reluctant, but she made some good stuff. Never heard of spaghetti squash until I met them. Spoon is known to be vegan-friendly.
Pad Thai glass noodles with veggies and tofu and a beer.
And thank God beer is vegan or I'd have serious problems.
I could have got it without the tofu. I guess tofu has the protein you may miss from meat, but it's just kinda spongy and just there. This meal was fantastic, though. So far, not doing too bad. Bring on Day 4! I'm nervous, though, because I have to attend a Tradeshow the next 2 days. We'll see what happens!
stay strong. you got this.
