Folks at r/vcj have convinced me, read title. From what I understand I should also be looking into taking B-12 supplements, any other important nutrient supplement/whatever that I should be aware of?

Sorry if this is a redundant question but I couldn't easily find a thread about this, feel free to link to another thread if this has been discussed (probably has).

    I honestly just google vegan recipes and look for something I want to make/eat. Sometimes it’ll lead me to a website with a variety of recipes and I end up browsing. Also there’s lots of recipe books, and most libraries will have a vegan/vegetarian cookbooks section.

    You might just look up guides on getting familiar with the usual vegan “replacements” so you get an idea of how to cook with tofu, seitan, tempeh, etc. I personally have had good luck with Tofutti cream cheese and sour cream, and I like Hellman’s vegan mayo, but it depends on what stores carry near you. If the price isn’t too high, just try different things and see what you like. Aldi’s also carries a surprising number of meatless options, if you want to save money. I like the soy burgers they carry.
