black food blogger Texas easy budget meal ideas

Hey Y’all! I’m Dasha.

Girl Mommy, Foodie and Meal Planning Enthusiast.

My blog, ThatsDashaVu, was created to connect with other parents across the globe and share my authentic experience as a mom, especially when it comes to feeding my family! Creating meals that each member of my family can enjoy, and doing so without blowing our budget takes a little finesse, but I’m up for the challenge!

Food is the magic that binds us all together. It’s more than just sustenance; it’s a universal language, a bridge connecting different cultures and generations at the dinner table. It’s a labor of love, but I am determined to not spend all my free time being tethered in the kitchen all day. Balance is key, and by simplifying our meals I can pour love into each dish without sacrificing precious time with my family.

Ironically, it was through motherhood that I found my love of cooking. I am a working mom, so quick and easy anything is my motto. Feeding my family great food is my love language, so I focus on family-friendly recipes first and foremost. You’ll find a lot of quick and easy meals that can be made in under 30 minutes or less.

I am also a Louisiana native living in Texas, so you’ll see a lot of southern comfort food, cajun meals, and Tex-Mex favorites here! Meals like red beans and rice, and everything that can be made with a roux, plus our TexMex favorites!
