I'm thinking of putting my cat on an all vegan diet. What are some good veggies and plant based proteins for cats?

So I’ve been thinking it’s about time I transition my cat off a carnivore diet and onto something more ethical/plant-forward. From what I’ve read, obligate carnivores are actually more adaptable than people think if you ease them into it. I started with a fava bean + unsweetened almond milk paste but he’s not really engaging with it and just keeps meowing when I put the bowl down. I’m assuming it’s just part of the adjustment phase but I want to make sure I’m doing this right. Does anyone have experience with zero-animal protein diets for cats? I was considering lentil purée with nutritional yeast for B vitamins or maybe tofu, but I’m not sure what’s best for long-term health. At what point do you just let them wait it out if they refuse to eat? I don’t want to reinforce bad habits but I also don’t want to transition him too fast.
