I want to start eating vegan for me and my family. I am a 37 year old married male with 2 children, ages 13 and 8 and I want to be a example for them and set them up for success as far as a healthy diet is concerned. 

One of my problems is that we love meat and I have no idea where to start as far as tasty foods are concerned          regarding a vegan diet.  I have no idea where to start in terms of "replacements". I eat a few eggs and organic crackers just about every morning for breakfast. I also love cereal even though I realize cows/goats milk isn't good for you. I'm allergic to nuts so almond milk is a no go. I'm not sure what rice milk taste like but I'm willing to give it a go. On top of loving meat, I also have a sweet tooth and would love to know what vegan foods i canneat to replace the craving I have for unhealthy proccessed foods. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
