Trader Joes has lots of great ice creams made from coconut milk and they have a roasted vegetable cheeseless pizza. But, I gotta say I live in chicago and there are tons of vegan choices around here.

There are many helpful vegan websites with great ideas for cooking and just for moral support, too.

Best wishes!

BTW if you have a really good blender putting frozen bananas in it with a tiny bit of water gives the texture of soft serve ice cream but it does taste just like a banana because that is all it is.
