Dinner with Donna

Dinner with Donna

🍽️ Budget friendly family food 🍽️

Hi, I'm Donna and I am a wife and mum to two boys aged six and ten. We have a miniature Dachshund called Duke (who is pretty crazy!) so he'll be featuring too! I’m living with secondary breast cancer but live a pretty normal life around treatment!

I have a passion for cooking and enjoy trying new family friendly recipes, on a budget, that the whole family can enjoy. On my channel you will find mostly lifestyle content from shopping hauls, family food, life on a budget and lots more!

I upload on a Tuesday (grocery shop) and Friday (budget meals) at 4pm with a few extras sometimes too! If you enjoy this kind of content, I’d love it if you would subscribe so that you don't miss any of my videos! If there's anything you'd like to see on my channel, make sure you leave me a comment!

Donna : ) x

    Hi Donna, Super to see you and of course I'll watch any video when they show up. At the same time family is way important and being 100% dialled in to them is what comes first, so enjoy what the boys are doing as well and respond to what u need. Did I mention I love that hoodie, and how it matches the scarf, animal print is so wearable regardless of the weather. I ate my first punnet of plus last month, and your right their incredible, I get the mangos and find them decent value cos you can judge the ripeness, its always tasty and a fair amount. You make such great shopping choices, and maybe I'll update u with news from me later, I was trying to respond to your absence by giving you space xx
