If you already can cook a bit, then transitioning dishes over to plant based is easy. Here are some tips to get you going.
Protein isn't hard to get from plants, but not everyone is aware of exactly how. This article is the notes for a talk I gave on plant based protein sources.
Recipes
I love savoury vegan muffins, so here is a modified recipe I found online (https://livelearnloveeat.com/tag/vegan-pizza-muffin-recipe/). I've added some more vegetables.
This is a pretty great lasagne. The veggies are lovely and the topping which is based on this one https://plantbasedfamilydownunder.com/2013/12/09/creamy-white-sauce/ really makes it. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do, and remember to soak the cashews for a couple of hours beforehand.
Books
This was the first cookbook that I really got into after I became vegan. It doesn't rely on mockmeats, the recipes are not too easy (ie aimed at someone who doesn't know how to make toast), but not too hard (someone who wants to spend all day in the kitchen). The chillis are fantastic, the Indonesian tempeh stew is my go to to convert people to tempeh and the Banana spice pancakes have won me many friends. Solid cookbook, and one you can work your way through and build your confidence with cooking.
