Reddit mentions of Forks Over Knives―The Cookbook: Over 300 Recipes for Plant-Based Eating All Through the Year

• How Not To Die Cookbook is a phenomenal cookbook that accompanies the How Not To Die book (a recommended read, IMO).
  
• Forks Over Knives cookbook is also a good one, as is their website
  
• Engine 2 Cookbook is the last cookbook I'll recommend.
  
• If you're on Facebook, check out the groups Whole Foods Plant Based No Oil Recipes & Tips, Dr. Michael Greger fans - How Not To Die, and Whole-Food-Plant-Based-Diet.com
  
• Happy Healthy Vegan has a nice and entertaining selection of videos on YouTube. They're primarily WFPB, but not exclusively. Also very informative videos on why and such.
  
• Simnett Nutrition has quite a few What I Eat videos where he shows you what he makes and eats throughout the day. He is fitness oriented, so eats a lot, and you'll see workout montages and such, as well as quite a bit of rambling, but his rambling is either relevant and helpful info, or just entertaining and silly at times.
  
• NutritionFacts.org YouTube is all of the science and studies broken down and analyzed to get you a good grasp of what and why WFPB is the way to go.

It is, but they also have cookbooks. I have this one.

This is known as the bible of vegan cooking. It has basics from how to stock your pantry, to cooking rice, etc. Recipes are categorized and they have low cal, I believe:

If you have one: The Ultimate Vegan Cookbook for Your Instant Pot: 80 Easy and Delicious Plant-Based Recipes That You Can Make in Half the Time

Maybe Forks over Knives: The Cookbook or Appetite for Reduction. They both have an emphasis on healthy vegan cooking.

i could eat all the recipes and wouldn't grow fat or have heart problems.

Chiming in to say that I grew up on a grain and sheep farm and went vegan after I moved away for university.

I did not see the animal rights aspects at first. For me, the start was frugality and environmentalism. Lentils were cheaper, and I knew just how much resources it took to grow corn and soybeans, only to feed it to an animal and have them burn away 90% of it.

Health benefits were the kicker. Forks over Knives made a big impact on me since I was training for a marathon. The BIG push was learning that dairy was strongly tied to prostate cancer, which emasculated my grandfather and is giving my dad trouble now (he's due for his first biopsy in a week.)

It was only after hanging around /r/vegan that I picked up the animal rights issues. Works like Earthlings and The Herd (NSFL) got me to see it as totally wrong, and dairy as especially fucked up.

Learning to cook wasn't hard, and restaurants aren't too big of a deal. Most of my recipes are: chop vegetables, saute, add spices, add beans and vegetable broth, and season to taste. There's plenty of cookbooks out there if you want to learn: I recommend The Veganomicon, the Forks over Knives cookbook, and Vegan With a Vengeance.

I'm glad to see that you're considering moving towards less animal cruelty. For me, the change wasn't nearly as hard as I thought it was, and it's getting easier every day.
