Whitney Kling

Self-taught chef, writer, and recipe developer

Whitney Kling is a self-taught chef, writer, and recipe developer with nearly two decades of professional experience in the food world. She has spent over 14 years in the grocery industry, while raising four wild (but lovely) children. Needless to say, she is an expert on how to feed a family. While developing recipes, writing a food memoir (in progress), running the local farmers’ market, and starting a salad delivery business, Whitney collects new techniques, flavor pairings, and culinary know-how wherever she goes. Her four kids clamor for her homemade granola bars, lick their bowls clean of her scratch salad dressings, and slurp up lentil coconut curries the way other kids tuck into boxed macaroni and cheese. It’s family food – because above all else Whitney loves to feed good food to the people she loves. If she’s not playing tennis or at a yoga class, she’s in the kitchen creating something addictive. She lives in Southwest Ohio with her four children, two cats, and that memoir that’s ever nearing completion.
