Canadian Living: Essential Easy Cottage Cooking

Whether they call it a cottage, camp or cabin, Canadians love to get away to a place where they can kick back, enjoy food and fun, and reconnect with family. The best cottage meals are relaxed, unfussy and easy to prepare quickly. Cottagers tell us they want to spend less time in the kitchen and more time enjoying the outdoors, while still serving tasty and healthful dishes.

The food experts in the Canadian Living Test Kitchen have gathered more than 90 favourite Tested-Till-Perfect recipes – all smart solutions for cottagers – in a compact, budget-friendly edition that features burgers and sandwiches, breakfast and brunch ideas, as well as easy main dishes—with a section devoted to barbecue favourites.
