This year, Father’s Day falls on June 15, 2025. One of the best ways to show your appreciation might just be through food. A homemade Mexican meal can bring flavor, fun, and a whole lot of love to the table. 

Whether Dad’s a fan of the grill, a big brunch guy, or just loves bold snacks, these easy recipes from Mexico Rico make it simple to plan something special. And with La Costeña products, you’ll get that authentic flavor every time.

The Meaning of Father’s Day in Mexico

In Mexico, Father’s Day, Día del Padre, is celebrated every third Sunday in June, just like in the United States. While it isn’t a public holiday, it holds special significance for families who use the day to show gratitude, spend time together, and honor the father figures who guide and support them.

The celebration often centers around food, whether it’s a backyard cookout, a homemade brunch, or simply enjoying a family meal with traditional dishes.

5 Easy and Delicious Mexican Dishes for Father’s Day

1. Steak Fajitas with Grilled Nopalitos

Steak Fajitas with Grilled Nopalitos bring smoky, tender steak to the spotlight. Marinate strip steak, grill it to perfection, then slice and serve with tangy sautéed La Costeña Nopalitos. Wrap it all in warm tortillas, serve with refried beans and taquera salsa, and enjoy.
