Avocados help my body with fat. Started eating almonds daily for fat and protein and they have helped a lot.
As an American I still have difficulty finding satisfying recipes and I think the key is to focus more internationally. Web searches or newer vegan cookbooks just yield chefs making stuff up or veganizing dishes. How many black bean burger recipes, vegan lasagna, or piles of random supposed vegetable goodiness must I endure?
It only makes sense to look into Indian and Asian cooking, since they've been honing cooking without meat for centuries. I bought Every Grain of Rice, Asian Tofu by Andrea Nguyen, and Vegan Richa's Indian Kitchen. The books came yesterday and I made a simple spinach with sesame oil appetizer with leftover spinach and it was awesome. Mexico's culture has also had to rely on recipe's without meat and I have Bayless's Mexian Kitchen which is pretty good.
