Veg*n going veggie....help?

Hello,
I am a complete and total animal lover! Since I was about 6 years old I was known by my friends as "the girl who was obsessed with dogs". My true love started there, after my family and I rescued my best friend , Oreo, from a local pound. He is a black labrador-australian shepherd mix and he brought me into the "animal world". After that day we started "collecting" more and more animals in our house like birds, rabbits(many, many, rabbits)more dogs, fish, snakes, turtles, hamsters, and much much more. One day my mom was talking to one of her friends about my love of animals and my mom's friend asked me if I was a veggie. My mom said no quickly, she knew if she got that idea in my head i was never letting go of it. And, of course, she was right. I have been a "half" veggie since I was 12. My problem is my mom let me give up red meat but not chicken. She said its too difficult to feed me with out "going out of her way" and making me something special. If there are any other teenage vegitarians here please help with any Yummy ideas for a good veggie meal. Then, maybe then I can finally give up chicken!

Thanks for all your help!
