Need help...

You don't have to choose between rice or bread. You can eat both... The cravings will eventually stop. Just some people get over them quick, for others it takes longer. Just remember why you're doing this (whether for health or for the animals; whatever your reason is). If it's smell that is inducing the craving, try to get away from it, and entertain yourself with something else.

There is a lot of foods you can eat: Pasta, rice, potatoes, beans, all types legumes, all types of vegetables, mushrooms, tofu, tempeh, falafel... You can substitute the milk for a plant-milk: Soy, almond, rice...

I think the best way to transition is to search for plenty of recipes online. There is a recipe section on this forum.
And here are a couple more websites: http://www.vegweb.com/recipes , http://www.findingvegan.com/ .
Some recipes tend to ask for a lot of ingredients, but a lot of those ingredients are usually spices, so you don't need to use them all.

I advise you to learn how to cook if you want to go vegan. It will make veganism a lot easier. Start with simple things like boiling pasta and potatoes, stir-fries, grilling (Portobello mushrooms, eggplant,...) if you have a griller.

Some simple things would be: Spaghetti with lentils in tomato sauce, rice and beans, stir-fried vegetables and tofu... Google is your friend - search for "easy vegan recipes", I'm sure you'll find something. Learning how to cook isn't hard; most of the time is just following the directions of the recipes. You just need a little will, and a tiny bit of creativity. For example, if the recipe asks for one type of pasta and you don't have it, use whichever one you have. If it asks for a specific ingredient and you don't have it, substitute it for another one you have or just don't add it in.

Here are some meals I tend to eat: Rice or macaroni with kidney beans and cabbage, Potatoes with fava beans (boiled) and baked hearts of palm, then I personally add a little olive oil and garlic at the end for taste. Sauteed onion, chickpeas, and green beans. Whole wheat pasta with peas and mushrooms - I boil the pasta, then I saute some cherry tomatoes (for taste) until they're melted. Once they are, add the peas and mushrooms, and finally add the pasta.

I find that when you change the way you eat your taste buds adjust after awhile. I never thought I would crave broccoli but I do!

Give it time and keep learning about new vegan food and it'll get easier and easier.
