Hello, I'm relatively new here and to veganism (about a month). So far I get my food from the college cafeteria (which fortunately has a wide variety of vegan options most of the time), and there's some cafes and restaurants around that are vegan-friendly.
However, I am autistic and for me personally, I have difficulty with preparing food and cooking and following written instructions. Many of the "easy college student recipes" are too hard for me, and I need instructions broken down a lot, like these (unfortunately, the examples are definitely NOT vegan ):

This is like how I have a set of instructions that are specific broken down for my laundry, which is another thing I have a lot of difficulty with, because these are very complex tasks.
Some have mentioned in other threads that lots of recipes are easy to veganise, and I'd see how I could do that for something where it's pretty clear (like cow milk -> rice milk), but sometimes it seems less obvious how to alter it and make the recipe work. So unless it's a very immediately obvious direct substitution, then for me it wouldn't be easy to veganise. So maybe the recipes referred to as easy to veganise are precisely this way?
I'm a bit confused, and a bit uneasy with cooking in general (only somewhat competent with microwave cooking, which I try to avoid when possible).
