There are so many damn cooking programs on, that I've never waded into this channel.
What are best ones to watch on this one?
They air a lot of old Food Network programming (like Molto Mario from 98-02; and a bonus is that they can use the original theme music, something that could not be done on Fine Living Network; win!), so I'd look around for any of the FN shows you liked from 5-10 years ago.
They are basically running a lot of FN Canada shows, so a lot of the presenters are Canucks. But my favorite cooking show on the channel, by far, is "Luke's Vietnam". Brilliant program hosted by this Vietnamese-born Australian chef named Luke Nguyen.
Next favorite is "Unique Eats" which is basically famous foodie types sitting around talking about their favorite restaurants and places to nosh.
And - tho it somewhat pains me to say it - I also really like "Extra Virgin", a quasi-reality show centered on actress Debi Mazar and her Tuscan husband's trip to Tuscany to renew their vows. (Or something like that) Anyway, her husband is a totally cool dude.
Also like "French Food at Home", "Chinese Food Made Easy", "Jamie (Oliver) At Home", and just about any show with Nigella Lawson.

Not every person has the time to make every ingredient from scratch.

Alfredo sauce takes less time to make than the noodles need to cook.
