For June 2026, this guide focuses on seasonal recipes Quebec households can compare before building a grocery list: Tuna Burgers, Asian Burgers, Vegetarian Chili, Kale Salad and Curry Roasted Cauliflower. The active Quebec grocery banners in the data are Iga, Maxi, Metro, Super C, Metro Plus, Provigo, Walmart and Wholesale Club, while the recipe-level pricing in this article uses the stores attached to each provided recipe and ingredient row. You can use this breakdown to compare recipe costs Quebec-wide without relying on generic national averages or unpriced meal ideas.

The practical value is in the item-level detail. If you are choosing between a burger night, a salad meal prep, a vegetarian chili or a cauliflower side, you can see the exact recipe cost, serving count and ingredient prices that support each option.

Seasonal Recipes with Real Ingredient Costs

Tuna Burgers are the lowest total-cost recipe at $16.11, while Kale Salad has the lowest provided cost per serving at $3.16 among the priced recipes.

Tuna Burgers — $16.11 Total, $4.03 Per Serving

Tuna Burgers cost $16.11 at Maxi for 4 servings, with a provided cost per serving of $4.03. This is the clearest entry point if your priority is a lower total grocery outlay for a seasonal burger-style meal. The recipe is tagged as a burger recipe and has a prep time of 15 minutes, which makes it a practical option when you want a fast meal built from shelf-stable tuna, buns, cheese, olives and mayonnaise-style dressing.

The ingredient list shows how the cost is spread across stores. Stuffed Manzanilla Olives With Pimento Paste are priced at $2.29 at Maxi, Light Mayonnaise Type Dressing is $4.99 at Maxi, Hamburger Buns are $3.25 at Metro, Marble Cheddar Cheese is $1.79 at Metro and Compliments Solid White Tuna Albacore in Water 170 g is $3.79 at Canada inc. If you are planning your seasonal grocery list Quebec-style, you can use those ingredient rows to decide whether a single-store trip is more convenient or whether a split between Maxi and Metro is worth it for your household.

For a family of four, the serving count is straightforward: one recipe covers 4 servings. That makes it easier for you to plan around a weeknight dinner without needing to scale the recipe up or down. It is also the recipe most aligned with a classic early-summer burger format, while staying separate from beef-based options such as Asian Burgers.

Asian Burgers — $31.67 Total, $6.33 Per Serving

Asian Burgers cost $31.67 at Iga for 5 servings, with a provided cost per serving of $6.33. This burger recipe has a 10-minute prep time and is tagged no_lamb and no_pork, making it suitable for you if you are avoiding lamb and pork but still want a beef-based burger meal. Source: eezly real-time price tracking.

The priced ingredients include Shallots Onions at $4.39 from Iga, Chinese Five Spice at $6.00 from Maxi, Crushed Red Pepper at $2.79 from Maxi, Lean Ground Beef at $9.49 from Metro and Sauce Hoisin at $9.00 from Maxi. The profile of this recipe is different from Tuna Burgers because the cost is concentrated in flavour-building ingredients such as Sauce Hoisin and Chinese Five Spice, as well as Lean Ground Beef. If you already keep spices or hoisin sauce at home, your actual checkout experience may differ, but the recipe cost shown here uses the real priced ingredient rows provided.

For your planning, Asian Burgers sit in the middle of the five-recipe list by total cost. At $31.67, they cost more than Tuna Burgers at $16.11 and Curry Roasted Cauliflower at $29.07, but less than Vegetarian Chili at $41.57 and Kale Salad at $47.41. Because the serving count is 5, the recipe can work for a larger household dinner or for a smaller household that wants leftovers.

Vegetarian Chili — $41.57 Total, $6.93 Per Serving

Vegetarian Chili costs $41.57 at Iga for 6 servings, with a provided cost per serving of $6.93. This recipe is tagged vegetarian and excludes beef, fish, lamb, pork, red meat and shellfish, making it the broadest meat-free main dish in the priced Quebec set. Source: eezly real-time price tracking.

The ingredient list is longer than the burger recipes, and that is important for your grocery planning. It includes Shallots Onions at $4.39 from Iga, Garlic at $1.99 from Metro, Pastene Canned Tomatoes San Marzano Style 796 ml at $4.69 from Canada inc., Black Beans at $1.50 from Maxi, Whole Kernel Corn at $1.25 from Maxi, Solid Light Tuna at $1.99 from Metro, Canned Fava at $1.69 from Metro, Chili Peppers New Mexico Chile Powder at $4.79 from Maxi, Cumin Seeds at $3.50 from Maxi, Reduced Salt Pepper Gravy, Less Salt at $1.79 from Maxi, Whole Water Chestnuts at $1.50 from Maxi, Ground Red Cayenne Pepper at $6.00 from Maxi and Black Pepper at $6.49 from Maxi.

Because this recipe has 13 priced ingredient rows, it is the most complex recipe in the collection from a shopping-list perspective. You may already have some spices or pepper in your pantry, but the provided total cost is built from the listed ingredient prices. If you are using the recipe as part of cheap seasonal meals Quebec planning, the strength of Vegetarian Chili is that it gives you 6 servings and relies heavily on shelf-stable canned and dry goods rather than highly perishable ingredients.

Kale Salad — $47.41 Total, $3.16 Per Serving

Kale Salad costs $47.41 at Metro for 15 servings, with a provided cost per serving of $3.16. Although it has the highest total cost in the priced collection, it also has the lowest listed cost per serving because the recipe serves 15. Source: eezly real-time price tracking.

The ingredient list includes Black Kale at $4.99 from Metro, Bolthouse Farms Shredded Carrots 284 g at $2.99 from Metro, Avocado at $1.44 from Maxi, White Quinoa at $6.79 from Canada inc., Balsamic Vinegar at $4.50 from Maxi, Olive Oil, Extra Light at $13.99 from Maxi, Reduced Salt Pepper Gravy, Less Salt at $1.79 from Maxi, Black Pepper at $6.49 from Maxi, Cilantro Coriander 1 Bunch at $1.99 from Canada inc. and Grape Tomatoes at $2.44 from Maxi. For your seasonal grocery list Quebec planning, this recipe is best understood as a meal-prep or group-serving salad rather than a small dinner for one or two people.

The cost structure reflects ingredients that can carry over into other meals. Olive Oil, Extra Light is priced at $13.99 at Maxi, and Black Pepper is priced at $6.49 at Maxi, both of which are pantry-style purchases rather than single-use fresh produce. If you are preparing food for a gathering, lunch rotation or shared meal, the 15-serving count makes the $47.41 total more useful than it first appears.

Curry Roasted Cauliflower — $29.07 Total, $7.27 Per Serving

Curry Roasted Cauliflower costs $29.07 at Maxi for 4 servings, with a provided cost per serving of $7.27. This recipe is tagged vegan and vegetarian, and it excludes beef, fish, lamb, pork, red meat and shellfish. Source: eezly real-time price tracking.

The priced ingredients are Cauliflower at $4.79 from Maxi, Olive Oil at $19.99 from Metro, Curry Powder at $2.50 from Maxi and Reduced Salt Pepper Gravy, Less Salt at $1.79 from Maxi. The ingredient count is short, but Olive Oil accounts for a large individual line item at $19.99. That makes Curry Roasted Cauliflower a good example of why you should read ingredient rows rather than relying only on the recipe total.

For your June seasonal grocery list, this recipe can function as a side dish, plant-based main or batch-cooked vegetable component. If you already have oil at home, you may view the ingredient mix differently, but the priced recipe total remains $29.07 based on the supplied rows. Among the five recipes, it has the highest provided cost per serving at $7.27, even though its total cost is lower than Asian Burgers, Vegetarian Chili and Kale Salad.

This table gives you two different ways to choose dinner. If your goal is to keep the checkout total as low as possible for a single recipe, Tuna Burgers at $16.11 from Maxi are the most budget-friendly option in this collection.

Asian Burgers serve 5 at $31.67, which may suit a slightly larger household, while Vegetarian Chili serves 6 at $41.57 and is the most clearly positioned as a vegetarian main dish.

If Metro is your main stop, the Kale Salad store label and its Metro produce rows may align better with your normal trip. If Iga is your preferred banner, Asian Burgers and Vegetarian Chili are the two recipes in this set with Iga as the listed recipe store.
