About Me

Here at Sensei Cooks I write about my adventures in the kitchen and sometimes in the dojo.

I have a love for cooking and want to explore all the possible facets of it. Leave no stone unturned so to speak.

I am Vegan and love all types of vegan cooking.

I love the process of cooking. Being in the moment. Sort of Zen and the Art of Cooking.

This is a great and fun vegetarian dish. Even though Hayley is the only vegetarian in the family, we still like to make sure we all have our veggies. Although a couple of years ago I did decide to go vegetarian. I think I did it for 9-12 months but as Belle says I was [...]
