Healthy Alternative Cooking with Ronnie Guance

Ronnie Guance didn't know that he would be donning a baker's attire 25 years ago. Although he run a restaurant in front of the old Bacolod airport years ago, little did he know that he would be into baking now. And even preparing it organically.

He is now the Product Developer of Puro Organics and Fresh Start Organics, having been a baking instructor at LCC-Isabela.

Holiday Desserts by Culinarian Sandy Solinap

As part of my advocacy to promote tourism in Bacolod and Negros, I have partnered up with the Negros Museum to hold events which can improve traffic to the museum. And we had Christmas Food Sale. on Dec. 17-18, 2010. However, I believe that a food sale is not complete without knowing how to prepare our food. To whet up your healthy appetite, I have invited my friend, Sandy Solinap, to do a cooking demo on healthy holiday desserts. So, here we go!!!

Sandy recently finished her competency requirements at
the Institute of Culinary Arts - De La Salle (Bacolod).

An aspiring VEGAN CHEF, artist, photographer, culinary writer, gardener, Sandy a mom of 3 is taking inspirations from her years working as a florist & gardener- landscaper and now an avid vegan cook and artist.

The result is fun, whimsical, delectable dishes & series
of colorful original acrylic & watercolor kitchen arts.

Guests enjoy her banana crepes!

..........and the fruit medley kebabs.

Sandy is also taking her educational experiences as a culinarian available to the public as well through her series of cooking demos and talks on promoting a happy healthy lifestyle thru healthy cooking.

Even the school children who came for a tour of the Negros Museum
were able to partake of Sandy's holiday desserts.

Indeed, creativity and artistry go a bit beyond the dinner plate for Sandy!
