A Hearty Canadian Breakfast: The Ultimate Morning Feast

Toronto – March 27, 2025 – There’s nothing quite like gathering around a hearty breakfast to start your day, and here at home in Canada, nothing hits the spot like a classic breakfast filled with eggs, sausage, bacon, toast, and all the fixing. When you choose quality ingredients, many of which are produced by UFCW Canada members from coast to coast, you ensure that your meal is as satisfying as it is supportive of local communities.

Let’s start with the star of the show: the eggs. Look no further than Burnbrae Farms Eggs or Star Egg, which are fresh, locally sourced, and packed with the nutrients you need to kickstart your day. Whether you like them scrambled, fried, or poached, these eggs will bring rich flavour to your plate, making them the perfect foundation for your breakfast.

Next, the sausages. For a hearty, flavourful option, try Maple Lodge, Dalisa Sausages, Freybe Sausages, Lafleur, La Fernandière, and Olymel brands crafted by skilled UFCW members. These sausages are made with the finest cuts of meat and a blend of spices that give them a delicious, savory flavor that perfectly complements your eggs and bacon. Whether you go for classic pork sausages or a smoky variation, they’ll provide the satisfying bite you’re craving.

Speaking of bacon, Maple Leaf Bacon Products and Olymel Bacon Products are your go-to choices for that crispy, salty, and irresistible crunch that makes every breakfast better. The high-quality cuts of Canadian bacon add a rich, savory flavor that pairs perfectly with the other elements of your meal, elevating your breakfast to a whole new level of deliciousness.

Of course, no Canadian breakfast would be complete without some golden, crispy toast. Country Harvest Bread, Villaggio, POM, and Bon Matin, are fantastic options, offering a variety of choices from classic white to hearty whole grain. Toasted to perfection and lightly buttered with Lactantia Butter, these breads offer the ideal balance of crunch and softness, and they serve as the perfect vehicle for any eggs, bacon, or sausages that might spill over your plate. For a traditional Quebec breakfast, don’t forget the cretons! Spread some of your favourites from Bilopage, Lafleur, DuBreton, and Paysan brands.

Don’t forget the extras! Add some Cavendish Farms Potato Products like hashbrowns or breakfast potatoes for a comforting, crispy side dish that’s just the right amount of indulgent. A few slices of fresh tomatoes or strawberries, grown by UFCW members working at Demers and Savoura, bring a touch of sweetness and freshness to balance out the richness of the meal.

For a complete breakfast experience, wash it down with a fresh cup of Four O’Clock Teas, La Courtisane, and Sens herbal teas for a soothing, aromatic tea, these beverages are the perfect companion to your meal, offering a warm, satisfying sip with every bite.
