I only recently (a little over a month!) went vegan, cold turkey, and have been cooking my meals at home as much as possible using all the vegan food blogs as inspiration. My favorite is Vegan Yum Yum, which has archives full of delicious recipes. I also highly recommend reading about nutrition; in my corner of the world (north Europe) such books are readily available, so I'm sure you can find them as well. First of all: congrats!

So, you should think of 11 vegetarian meals you like that you can make and sort of start from there. It won't be so difficult! And like with any diet, if you have a "set-back" or fall off the wagon, that doesn't invalidate the rest of your work and shouldn't deter you from your goal. Good luck!
