Those of you who have not been vegetarians your whole life any pointers on transition would be greatly appreciated (Quick and easy recipes, dealing with family, etc). I've never really been much of a meat eater so I don't think that transition will be hard. The most difficult part has been the reaction of my family learning how to cook!

I think the best tip i could give you is don't become a vegetarian to fast (at least that's my opinion)
Do it slow but practical.
I first stopped eating meat after a year i stopped with the sauce, one year later with fish and that it didn't take long to stop eating fish sauce also.
Now it's more than 10 years later that i have completely stopped eating anything and i feel great.
What i want to say is do it slow but follow the rules you make and you will see after a while you won't miss meat or fish ever.

The thing with the family is harder. I was only 12 years when i started and nowone at my family was (or is) vegetarian. It where hard years, i just ate everything what they ate but than without the meat.

Lucky they started to take me serious after a few years.
And now i do my own cooking. It isn't hard. And tasty things aren't only with meat.

As for recipes ?
The whole internet is full of them just look at any vegetarian site and you will find recipes.

It's a long and (sometimes) a hard but it's worth it. Trust me !
