Glad to be of service!
I have read that although it is EXTREMELY rare to have a shortage of B12, it is very serious. they make tablets, lozenges that dissolve under the tongue are popular amongst vegans, but the only ones I found had sorbitol in them, which is an IBS trigger. There may be IBS safe alternatves, but that is something I have not yet set my focus on.
The book that helped me the most was "BEcoming a vegetarian for Dummies" By Suzanne Havala. I know, I know, it sounds silly, but it is REALLY good and full of information. I borrowed it from my local library. I picked it up off of the shelf as a joke, then wound up taking it home cause I couldn't put it down! havala is a respected nutionist in the vegetarian community. There are sperate "vegan" sections in the book, too.
Anything that I thought I knew about vegan/vegetarianism before I picked up that book, I really didnt know much! So much dietary info in that book. helps that I learned Heather's diet really well, I could apply that to the veggie info.
If I find out more about the B12, I'll let you know.
Oh, and you don't need to bake tofu, I just like it that way... Another EASY good recipe you can look at is on the REcipe board on the recipe index, and is called Berry Smoothie or something of the sort. It has tofu, fruit , and soymilk in it. It was posted by TessLouise, I think.
