Delicious is subjective. My wife is vegan, so I'm vegan adjacent. I don't really like food (at all) but the things I do like tend to fall into rather simple categories like "meat with salt." I don't enjoy cooked vegetables (raw with ranch, please), don't like cooked fruit (pie... I'll never understand it...), hate tofu in almost all configurations and am really not into beans and rice. It makes my wife's life difficult (I'm always amazed she puts up with me) because she's not only vegan for ethical reasons but she genuinely likes eating that way. The Impossible and Beyond are a blessing. I can eat a burger that tastes pretty close and I don't run afoul of her ethics. Win, win.
More to the point, you can subsist just fine on a diet of mostly plant food without having to eat processed stuff that mimicks meat.
For instance, check out the many variations of rice and beans eaten around the world (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rice_and_beans), that are nutritious, filling and delicious and made from ... rice and beans (though rice is often processed, to be fair).
