It's not a picnic without watermelon. We've swapped the tuna in a traditional Hawaiian poke bowl for sweet, juicy cubes of the fruit and turned up the heat with chipotle and fresh ginger. This recipe makes extra dressing, so you'll have plenty for your next salad.

The best part ? These products have stood the test of time and are delicious too — so you don’t need to sacrifice quality either. Next time you head to the grocery store, don’t forget to indulge in a little local love and stock up your pantry with these prepared-in-Canada favourites.
This slow-cooker pork is tasty and versatile: You can make it for tacos, nachos, enchiladas and pulled pork on a bun. The filling can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to three days. Serve with sour cream to dollop over top.
Fresh spring rolls filled with noodles, crab, vegetables and tons of herbs served with a sweet-and-sour sauce is a great communal recipe — everyone can take turns wrapping a couple. This type of roll, originally a Vietnamese specialty, is so popular that it has become ubiquitous in Thai restaurants.
Eastern Canada is one of the main sources of sustainable snow crab in North America, with the bulk of the snow crab being harvested from the frigid waters of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. These crustaceans are often sold precooked and frozen in clusters of legs and arms. To thaw the clusters in a flash, place them under running cold water for about 10 minutes.
Baked macaroni is one of our Sunday dishes that we serve with stewed chicken or beef, rice, stewed red beans and potato salad. This will stick to your bones and you won't be hungry too quickly thereafter. Baked macaroni is definitely a tasty comfort food that all ages will love. Best served hot and leftovers are just as good. For those who are lactose intolerant, omit the can of evaporated milk and substitute with 1/2 cup of chicken broth. You must also increase the amount of breadcrumbs by 1/4 cup. Don't use too much broth as the mixture will not bind together. Any Canadian marbled cheese and parmesan cheese can be used.
