Diane Davidson

Owner|Chef |Nutritionist

I started Cast Iron Kitchen in 2012 with a mission to help people feel their best. I switched career paths from psychology to nutrition after realizing that eating good food is the baseline to all health: body, mind, and spirit.

I’m here to cook food that supports you on every level, from mental clarity, to physical strength, good digestion, and glowing skin.

We keep current on nutrition research while honoring our philosophy that fresh foods closest to the earth, eaten in a wide variety with moderation is the key to good health. Pleasure is a huge part of eating well.

When you love what you’re eating it is easy to stay on course!

Please don't hesitate to reach out! I'm always here to help. diane@castironkitchen.com

With love,

Diane

When I am not writing songs or performing country music in Nashville, you can find me in the kitchen trying new recipes! There is something so peaceful about creating something beautiful and delicious, and just like music, sharing it with people. When I met Diane and heard her outlook on food and nutrition, I knew I wanted to get involved. I am excited to be a part of the team to create some fun content for Cast Iron Kitchen while helping our chefs bring the best meals to your lovely homes!
