Favourite Recipes For Canada Day!

June 29, 2020 By Kari Leave a Comment

Your gathering may be smaller this year, but you can still bring it with the feast! Here are a few of my (truly patriotic), favourite recipes for Canada Day!

recipes for Canada Day-1The Best Caesar in the World

  • I hate to brag, but I make the best Caesar in the world. 😉 It’s all in the two very special secret ingredients and the order in which you craft this beloved beverage. Get the recipe to make my version of Canada’s cocktail here.

recipes for Canada Day-2Breakfast Poutine

  • When a classic breakfast dish marries a delicious poutine: fresh comfort food the whole family will love! Here’s how to make the Ultimate Breakfast Poutine using items you likely already have in your kitchen! Here’s my recipe for the breakfast version of Canada’s favourite dish!

recipes for Canada Day-3Vegan Nanaimo Bars

  • From one of my favourite recipe sites- Nutrition in the Kitch- an amazing recipe for the vegan version of Canada’s classic treat – Nanaimo Bars! Get the recipe here.

recipes for Canada Day-4Maple Leaf Popsicles

  • You really can make any flavour of these popsicles, but to keep with the theme, use watermelon or strawberries as a base. All you need is a maple leaf cookie cutter and popsicle sticks. Here’s a great how-to I found online.

recipes for Canada Day-5

Bannock

  • This iconic Indigenous dish is so delicious, and a great way to spark up a conversation with your family while celebrating Indigenous culture. Local Cree chef Shane Chartrand features an amazing Bannock recipe in his new cookbook Tawaw – Progressive Indigenous Cuisine. He says the key to making it perfectly is to not overmix your ingredients. “The dough should look shaggy.” Chef Chartrand says it’s essential to mix by hand, not with an electric or stand-up mixer. Shop the book here. Get the recipe here.

Simple Canada Day Cake

  • Whip up this festive cake from The Kitchen Magpie to celebrate! (It’s easier than it looks). Get the recipe here.

For my local friends who would rather buy than make, here are a few mouthwatering Canada Day treats from some of our favourite local shops.

We'll be showing you what our Elf 
Candi🍭 does each day this year so you can share in the joy of the season! We would love to see what your elf is up to as well so be sure to tag us!❤️ 

We're also wondering if she may bring a new elf friend with her this year. 🤔 How cool would that be?! 

🍭Last year she decorated Wyatt's bedroom door with a whole bunch of cool stuff she brought from the North Pole including blown up candy canes, swirly mints, twinkle lights, and a few fun Christmas garland. What do you think?

This trend had me deep in the files for hours last This trend had me deep in the files for hours last night 😭😭 

Ask any questions in the comments ⤵️ I'm an open book on this one. Feel free to share with someone who may need it. I believe sharing our struggles and stories helps all of us feel less alone.

Ry and I had the talks that maybe this wouldn't happen for us. The biggest heartache in that was thinking Wyatt wouldn't have a sibling- something we wanted for him. ❤️

If you're unfamiliar with our story:

- In 2014 we had a miscarriage at 15 weeks.💔

- Found out I have an 'incompetent cervix' 🙄 and would need a cerclage for future pregnancies.

- Six months later we were pregnant with Wyatt! ❤️

- Wyatt was born in July 2015.

- A few years later we started trying for another babe.

- It turned out to be a 2.5 year journey. In 2021, we took the summer off trying (I turnes 40) and our first month back in the game - boom. 💃 Pregnant!

- Two significant scares in my pregnancy. 

- June 2022 - Noah arrives! 🤗🤗
