A chicken pie under a dropped biscuit crust opens the week, and Monday's gumbo simmers bacon, tomato, and okra for three hours. Liver and mushrooms, stuffed peppers, and a tomato pilaf fill the middle, with steamed salmon on Friday and a maple cream pudding on Saturday.
Every recipe here is adapted from a historical cookbook record — the Canadian Farm Cook Book (1911) and The Canadian Family Cook Book (1914) — with quantities restated in modern units. This is a present-day menu assembled from those records and a source-led sampler, not a claim that this exact week is traditional or representative of how every Canadian household ate.
