30 Best Father’s Day Recipes Dad Will Love –
I’m sharing a collection of my dad’s favorite recipes—from longtime classics to new favorites he never gets tired of. Whether you’re planning your Father’s Day weekend menu or just looking for a few delicious ideas, this list has something for everyone. Think crowd-pleasing appetizers, hearty dinners, and of course, a few sweet treats to end the meal right. It’s a little something special for all the amazing dads out there.
I’ve said it before, but I truly believe there’s nothing more special than the relationship between a father and daughter. Over the years, my dad has become my “best guy.” We talk about everything. We’re so similar in some ways, and totally different in others—but that balance works.
We didn’t always have the smoothest relationship when I was younger, but things have changed so much since then. He’s now my dishwasher, my therapist, my grocery runner, my late-night airport pickup guy, and the first person I turn to when I need to bounce around ideas. He’ll do just about anything to make me feel supported—and he never complains. He’s simply the best.
If you follow Sunday Favorites or my Instagram stories, you’ve probably seen glimpses of him—he’s a total wild card, and you never quite know what he’ll say next. But our family is so lucky to have him.
This year, we’re celebrating Father’s Day with a roundup of his all-time favorite recipes—some from this past year, and others we come back to again and again. He loves just about everything… as long as it’s spicy!
