The initial process can take a long time - come prepared with a good book while you wait :)
The only way is to start over entirely, using a previous backup of the vanilla game (which can be done with the mods manager). Once the texture mods have been installed via ALOT, there is no going back to modify something, or add additional mods. Modding Mass Effect games can be considered a one-time process. DLCs are simply loose files bundled together, which makes them easier to install. Some mods come as loose files that have to be copied into the game folders, and others come as DLCs.
Mods can generally be split into two categories: While this may sound simple, a lot of care has to be taken when doing this, because Mass Effect 3 was not designed to be moddable. The basic pinciple is copying mod files into the game's CookedPCConsole folder, which contains the final files that the game uses.
