I would say that the various ingredients taste delicious without any special recipe. At first they'll taste very bland because you're used to man-made foods, but then you'll adapt. It takes approximately to 2 weeks. You should be generous with salt at first to make it easier.
I think the health argument is stronger than the ethical argument and it's more or less on par with the environmental argument. In fact humans are plant eaters precisely because we're social animals and like most social animals we are evolved to eat primarily plant food.
If you like the taste of sweet, and you do not have special negative reaction to it, you can also add some sugar on the surface of your food to improve the taste. This isn't optimal for health but it's better to eat sweetened foods than to end up back to eating meat and cheese. Many foods are also naturally sweet, such as sweet potatoes and carrots. Get these if you like.

There are lots of good vegetable broth's at Aldi and Trader Joe's. There is a broth at Trader Joe's called Miso Ginger Broth which tastes a lot like ginger Tea, it just feels a little heartier.

Maybe some kind of avacado dish like a mild guacamole or something? Here's one from Forks Over Knives:

I feel like you could also get lots of fruit/veggies and some WFPB milk and make smoothies. I don't know how strict you are on the diet (I've heard smoothies aren't the optimal way to eat fruits and veggies), but I feel like for recovery some exceptions can be made.
Along the same vein, maybe if you want to get really creative you could make ice cream. Here's a link to a Forks Over Knives recipe.

As far as less brain fog on keto, you might just have an intolerance to gluten, I sure do. Even though other people can eat it healthily, I have done an elimination diet and found it to cause lots of unwanted symptoms in me. Additionally, just choosing whole food carbs like sweet potatoes and other veggies makes me feel great, where i often feel crappy eating anything made of flour. Just something to think about.
If you want to stay with keto head over to r/veganketo. I personally did not feel my best doing keto, but all I care about is people staying vegan for the animal's and earth's sake. So do whatever makes you feel better.
If you go the wfpb route, be careful of cutting out too much fat to soon, that can make you snacky.
Good luck!

This is one of the recipes we created for our upcoming '5-Ingredient Plant-Based Cookbook: 76 Easy & Delicious HIGH PROTEIN Recipes'. We hope you like it! 💚
Plant based cardiologist Dr. Joel Khan has been talking about it for a little while now. He mostly cites Dr. Valter Longo's research (and his fasting mimicking diet) out of USC.
Here's a podcast episode where Dr. Khan talks at length about fasting and a plant based diet for longevity and treating heart disease.
I have been doing what Dr. Longo calls "time restricted feeding" for a few months now, and it's been great. I don't eat between 6pm and 7am every day.
Dr. Longo has been researching longevity for decades now, and his science is pretty convincing. True North has been treating very sick people with medically supervised water fasts for even longer. The evidence was strong enough for me to try it out. But I'm not a scientist, just a very skeptical and curious person. So YMMV.
A couple more links of interest:
I recently bought this Oster blender/food processor combo. It's loud, but does a great job making oat flour, hummus, smoothies, etc.; the blender base detaches for easy cleaning under the blades (an awesome feature imo); and it's really affordable. They also sell a version with just the blender and that might that be enough for your uses, but I decided to splurge.

I do not have kids, but many folks in my WFPB Facebook group that do, recommend Plant-Powered Families. I have heard great reviews!

Mine are so old I have no idea if the models are even relevant! My food processor is a plastic model. I think it looks like this one:Cuisinart DLC-10SY Pro Classic 7-Cup Food Processor, White
And this is my blender. vitamix 5200
The blender was an unasked for wedding gift that I had no idea how much I’d rely on. I use it a few times per week at the very least, and it still works perfectly.
There are so many new models out for both- I would check reviews to make sure what you end up finding is still well-made.

I use this and it’s raspberry and tastes great
You can find a good bread recipe, as well as many others, on this Whole Food Plant Based cooking show on YouTube. She has a very good Ranch Dressing recipe.
This is an awesome spaghetti sauce, and this is the spaghetti I buy. I double the sauce recipe and freeze it in Quart jars. I eliminate the sugar, salt and sausage in the sauce. If you want the sausage, and are willing to look the other way with the added salt, you could try this plant based sausage. I've used it in this Jambalaya recipe I found on Reddit recently. Which you'll need cornbread as a side. I could go on and on, but I'll leave you with Chili!!
Get an instant pot and cook lentils and other beans. They are very filling and have low caloric density. I like to spice mine up with curry.
Also, if you want to cook health-oriented dishes which are also rather good, I recommend Dr. Greger's cookbook.
I had a terrible time getting nice vegan birthday cakes until I purchased Modern Vegan Baking, which is by a trained pastry chef.
Your body should adjust over time as well. Your gut bacteria will start to change to accommodate your new diet style and those little guys will be better suited to digesting properly.
It’s going to be a trial and error to really figure out what works well with your bod. I had trouble with cruciferous veg when I first started but now that I have so much of them during the week that nothing really bloats me anymore.
Also I like to use this product about twice a year. Just a dropper full twice a day until you run out (about two weeks) it helps kill some of those parasites that may have been establish in your gut for years and often come from animal products. They could be farting up a storm when your eating your veg, bean, and rice, kill ‘em dead. Honestly order it, when I did my first round I had this feeling like I had be unknowingly bloated for years and just fixed it. Taste like shit though.
Keep up the effort, getting off animal products is so worth it. And try that dropper, you may be able to handle the rice and beans sooner than your think.
Also, maybe potato if your looking for filler? And I second the lentils and chickpeas sub for the beans and maybe quinoa or farrow sub for the rice.
