Tricia Williams is an accomplished chef, nutrition educator, and culinary consultant. Six years ago she founded Daily Dose, a highly customized health supportive meal delivery service for celebrities, elite athletes, and high-performing individuals, so that she could share her passion for fresh, whole, locally grown, organic, sustainable, and delicious food.
Over the last 20 years, Williams has left her mark on highly regarded Manhattan restaurants including The City Bakery, Home Restaurant, Isla, and Olives. Her passion for culinary nutrition surfaced after she gave birth to her first child. She returned to school to secure her Holistic Nutrition Certification and coupled that with a Food Therapy Certification from holistic health pioneer Annemarie Colbin at the Natural Gourmet Institute. She does a lot of consulting work, including product and menu development for different health food brands. One of her favorite projects to date was working on Hu Kitchen’s menu before it opened.
Williams believes that what we eat affects our physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Her philosophy is “no gluten, no dairy, no sugar, no problems.” Her recipes can be found in Dr. David Perlmutter’s book Drop Acid, in Dr. Frank Lipman’s book 10 Reasons You Get Old and Feel Fat, at Bon Appetit online, and on Yahoo Health in her “Junk Food Makeover” column. Her wisdom on healthy fat can be found in Bobbi Brown's book Beauty from the Inside Out, and she is a recurring judge on the TV show Beat Bobby Flay.
