Fanshawe Annual 2020/21

LUCIA’S BRUSCHETTA Lucia Stevenson is 23 years old from Calgary, Alberta. After taking two other programs at Fanshawe, she realized that cooking was her passion which led her to the first year of the Culinary Skills program. With a lifelong love of cooking, she grew up learning from her mom and nana, and enjoys developing new recipes by adding her favourite ingredients. This is how her bruschetta with Bartlett pears came about. Lucia’s future goals are to enter the world of food as a recipe developer and food blogger. The Culinary Skills program has given her many opportunities and she is thankful to be able to share her signature appetizer!
