The holidays are such a busy time of the year, that something is bound to get overlooked. For us, that is usually a meal, be it for Christmas Eve or even the weeknights in between all the festivities. It’s understandable that this happens, right? Everyone is caught up in making lists, checking them twice and running between work, home life, school concerts and, of course, shopping! Throw in the odd snowstorm and it gets even worse. That is where M & M Food Market (I have always called it M & M Meats or Meat Shop) comes in!
When was the last time you shopped at M & M’s? We have one in our immediate neighborhood and they know us pretty well over there. 🙂 I love the convenience of just walking in for a few items, no long lines like at the grocery store (or a huge building to march through) and they have great sales every week! Product is always well stocked and there are often samples out for us to try before we buy. 🙂
This year M & M Food Market wants to help you figure out your holidays before they overwhelm you. The great thing is you don’t need to plan well in advance. They always have interesting and tasty standards to fall back on, like effortless appetizers to suit every taste. If you are having friends from the team over, serve up items like M & M Chicken Wings, Pizza Rolls, Sirloin Beef Meatballs and Calamari Rings. Or for a fancier night in, give your guests a treat like an M & M Shrimp Platter, Mini Bacon-Wrapped Beef Tenderloins and Chicken-Pineapple Mini Skewers. Sounds wonderful, right?!
These ideas are just the beginning. We are looking forward to trying out the M & M Food Market Hors d’ Oeuvre Quartet this year, when the family comes over for New Year’s Eve. This spread contains internationally inspired bite-sized puff pastries with savory fillings like spinach with feta cheese, mushrooms and leeks, caramelized onions and roasted red peppers with Asiago cheese. What a grand combination!
Of course, any special gathering would not be the same without some sweet treats! This year M & M Food Market introduced their new Festive Yule Log. With two flavours to choose from this gal can’t wait to serve up the hand rolled White Yule Log. It features vanilla sponge cake around white chocolate mousse and raspberries, all covered in a rich and delicious glaze. I am betting this will soon become a family favourite. ♥ You can also get a little creative in the kitchen with the Limited Edition Sugar and Shortbread Cookie dough. These pre-proportioned delights take no time at all to make and will allow you to take creative license and decorate them any way you want. We have a package sitting in the freezer, all set for this weekend. Some will get cherries on them and some will get sprinkles, but I am willing to bet they will all taste amazing!
Will so many great selections to choose from at M & M Food Market, why not let them help you figure out your holiday menu this year. Keep an eye on the website for their weekly specials and stock up for after the break as well! You can also follow them on Twitter and their new Instagram!
What is one of your favourite items to get at M & M’s? My hubby loves their chicken wings and the kids and I are partial to their chicken strips!

Disclosure: I was compensated for this post, however 100% of the opinions expressed are my own.
I love the homestyle lasagna. We purchase food often from M&M’s.. Meals are made simple!
I used to get the microwave/single-serve meals all the time. Haven’t been into an M&Ms in ages! I love their nanimo bars. So yummy!
I love their selection of appetizers.. just think of all the time that can be saved buying them instead of making.
I often get the oriental party pack or wings as appetizers for Christmas.
They have such great products, I wish we had one closer to where we lived. Living up North has it’s disadvantages.
I do love their delicious baked goodies…oh those Nanimo bars
It all looks great but in our little area we don’t have a M&M wish we did
I do enjoy a log roll at Christmas. I wonder why we only eat this at Christmas you’d think we could eat this all winter long eh?
The meatballs and the sausage rolls are nice 🙂 Haven’t tried their chilis or lasagnas yet though.
I think a trip to M&M Food Market is in order!
we love the spicy chicken burgers
I absolutely love M&M’s – their desserts are like a secret gem – so perfect for entertaining!!!
I wouldn’t mind having that roll cake!
I love the variety. they also have some pretty good weekly deals.
M&Ms has lots of delicious food. My personal favorite is the cream puffs.
They sure have everything you need for entertaining over the holidays! 🙂
I really like their products! esp the appetizers!
I like M&M’s for picking up food for New Year’s Eve. And I love their buttercream bars and nanaimo bars!
The thing I love about them is they have a huge selection to choose from and it all tastes great
I love their Cabage rolls! Something I dislike making!
M&M’s is great! I like their beef burgers and deep dish chicken pie.
The shortbread cookie dough has my name all over it
I love M&M because they have great food but one of my favorites is their desserts
Everytime I’m scrolling through I scroll to these pictures of those delicious cakes and my little old heart skips a beat…. breakfast! lol
I love M&M’S so many great choices , i love the wings and nanaimo bars , so scrumptious 🙂
We enjoyed some M&M wings over the holidays.
Honey Garlic Chicken Wings is our favorite and the Hors d’Oeuvres pack at Christmas time.
I love shopping at M&M’s. They have great quality food selections. I bought the Oriental party pack, Louisiana style wings, and shrimp for Christmas entertaining.
Ohhhh I haven’t been to one of those shops in years….off to look it up online 🙂
The Chicken-Pineapple Mini Skewers sound so good!
I love shopping at M&M stores, they have an amazing variety of delicious appetizer, entree, & desserts to choose from at good prices.
I went to m&m on New Year’s Day. Absolutely no other food store was open. The owner was there and he said their was a mistake on the flyer. He wasn’t supposed to be open that day but wanted to honour the dates and times erroneously given in the flyer. He gave up his holiday. What an amazing guy. Great food too.
We have several, they have great chicken breast grills, potato skins and we love having their oriental party pack on Christmas eve!
We don’t have an M&M here anymore. I must go check them out when I’m in the big city. thinking about onion rings and their wings now.
I like the store, they have great products
I would like to try their cabbage rolls.
M&M’s is one of my go to places for hosting any event or party! I also love their quick frozen meals.
We actually have never tried any of their holiday goodies but their selection looks and sounds amazing! We rarely go to M&M’s because we don’t live near one anymore but we loved M&M’s for their chicken breasts and chicken wings!
I can’t remember the last time I shopped at M&M’s, absolutely ages that’s for sure. We don’t have one in this village/town I do know that. 🙂
I have only been in our M&M shop once and so I do not have a favorite. However, I plan on getting to know them better this Holiday Season so I have more time to enjoy the Season than working all through it. Thank you for all your suggestions.
I really like the M&M’s beef roast! It’s SO tender & one of my favorites!
I love their Lousiana chicken wings.
Such delicious choices
