Need some ideas on what to fix for my husband

My husband went to the doctor the other day and they started him on cholesterol medicine. He's so upset about it and I think he feels like it's his fault even thought it's not. We eat pretty good, we exercise, we drink water, etc... But the doctor said that his bad cholesterol is too high and his good cholesterol is too low so she wants to try to get it where it is supposed to be. It also runs in his family so it could be just genetic and not anything that we are doing wrong. He goes back in three months and if it looks a lot better then she may take him off the medicine and just have him keep on exercising regularly and eating good. So, I need some recipes for meals that I can make for him. I printed some off that I had googled but I need some more. I cook most of the time and I cook good things for us but I need some different recipes where he won't feel like we are eating the same things over and over. So if you have any recipes that I could use please share them with me. Thanks!

Sine my husband and I cut out all junk food and adopted a vegan diet our cholesterol and triglycerides have dropped dramatically. Cholesterol is only present in animal products. Here are a few sites with helpful recipes. http://www.easyvegan.com/recipes/ http://vegweb.com/ http://www.veganmeat.com/recipie.html
