Salad dressings are easy. Oil of any flavour you like
more than a quibble: extra-virgin olive oil should be the main choice here, not only for health reasons.

If B12 absorbs slowly that's all the more reason to take it daily. The residence time for your gut is maybe 36 hours, average, so what hasn't gone in is flushed away. As for the cost, forget it. My multivitamins come from the supermarket at 120 for less than £1, they have 100% of B12 needed. One a day to mop up any shortcomings, and if I don't need it I've wasted 0.8p. I'll take that, most people in the north of the UK are low on vitamin D in the winter, especially those with dark skin.I'm sure I've read online - first mistake right there - that B12 from tablets can only be absorbed very slowly so that there's no point in taking more than two a week; a tablet a day makes for expensive piss. I've been taking B12 tablets twice a week for a few years as my meat intake had been low for years and now it's down to zero.
But why are you changing your diet in this way ?
(my 19 year old daughter has been vegan for 3 years, so I, her pescatarian father, support this by buying 95% vegan for the household. I strongly feel there is an environmental imperative for humanity to adopt a vegan diet & consider it a lack of consciousness on my own part that I have not quite done so. Lots more to write, but I’m out for the rest of the day. Btw, Quorn has egg white in it, unless you’re buying the new vegan Quorn which is still not available in NL)
All of which is to say mass-produced products that are- or contain meat or dairy (and fish and honey) are ethically dirty and I want nothing more to do with it.
I'm with you on this. I do eat meat but on days when I don't want to I have no desire to eat something that looks like bacon but isn't. Chickpeas are great. They are great as chickpeas, great as falafels, great as hummus. Turned into a quasi chicken burger? Nah.Rather than trying to replace/ substitute meat, I’ve found investigating and learning about recipes from across the world really rewarding, with Mexican, Persian, Indian and some Italian my own favourites.
Quorn stuff contains egg white? I'll look out for that next time I go shopping.

My teenage girls are now demanding Oatley Barista. Fancy tastes when someone else is paying the bill....
Yes, the vegan stuff uses potato to hold the burger together rather than egg. It's not as successful, but that's life.They do a vegan range so I'd guess they don't have it?

The spicy burgers are very nice.
