seeking vegan who is also a " big eater"

I've been vegetarian for 15 years,I want to go vegan because of animal rights reasons. I love to eat, and need 3 awesome meals a day and yummy snacks, I say this because I imagine its easier if you're not a big foodie. I need to find a vegan who loves to eat like me so I can pick their Brain for ideas and How to start. Hope someone can help!

seeking vegan who is also a

places that i have found the majority of my ideas, recipes, inspiration:

happy herbivore
forks over knives
engine 2 diet
the book eat vegan on $4 a day
the book i'm mad as hell and i'm not going to eat it any more

these sources have helped me to learn a lot.
i am still not 100% vegan. i occasionally eat cheese and i have an even less occasional egg. but i have learned a LOT from these.

they have awesome recipes and general resources to substitute some things.

my go-to meals are:

* oatmeal
* cereal with almond milk
* fruit/tea/toast
* veggie sandwiches
* pasta dishes... just two days ago i made pasta with mushrooms and broccoli in a wine sauce... yummo and no animal products
* rice and beans of all kinds
* stir fry
* also... exploring different ethnic foods. i have found that "poor people" foods tend to lean towards vegetarian/vegan
* we love indian food... chana masala is awesome with rice

i hope this helped a bit

Pretty much any of you're favorite non vegan recipes can easily be converted to vegan

The best vegan cheese is nut cheese. It's expensive but amazing.

Check out Oh She Glows and Plant Powered Kitchen/Dreena Burton. I also get tons of recipe ideas on Pinterest. Oh, and if you want a laugh (and don't mind cursing) check out Thug Kitchen too.
ETA: and I am a big eater, I eat constantly, lol. LMK if you have any specific questions
