Welcome to 2025! This new year brings more young consumers interested in Mexican cuisine than ever before. In fact, Gen Z is the first generation to love Mexican food more than Italian1, which means that catering to your younger consumers’ cravings will be key. While Mexican cuisine continues to evolve across menus, younger folks are looking out for modern twists on tried-and-true favorites. Take advantage of this interest in innovation by stacking your menu with a tasty blend of both nuanced and traditional Mexican dishes.

Add a little bit of an extra crunch with the tantalizing flavor of chicharrones pork tacos. To build, top a Mission® 5.5” Super Soft White Corn Tortilla with moist, shredded pork, crushed, crunchy chicharrones, a fresh, zesty cilantro lime yogurt, a bright red salsa roja and a garnish of queso fresco crumbles.
For a delectably spiced, three chile quesadilla simply top an 8” Mission® Flour Tortilla with shredded cheese, sliced pork, fresh corn, pico de gallo, even more shredded cheese. To finish, stack a second tortilla on top and griddle or press until cheese has melted.
These savory, spicy nachos are assembled by topping Mission® Pre-Fried Yellow Triangle Tortilla Chips with hatch green chile cheese sauce, chopped chicken, jalapeno, and fresh red onion. It’s finished off with avocado salsa and garnished with sliced radishes.
For a healthier alternative to traditional poblanos, try a bright combination of salsa roja and salsa verde, freshly cut onion, warm chicken, and a sprinkle of queso fresco all on top of crisped 4.5" White Corn Tortillas.
