“Summer is a time we crave fruit for hydration and sustenancea nd, because it’s summer, you can get most domestic fruits and incorporate them into every course,” says Golden. “Savory Spice Shop has an amazing variety of chilies, herbs, spices and salts for making sauces, marinades, dressings, side dishes and salads.”

Golden launched Mindful Meals, which delivers freshly
prepared, wholesome meals to clients, in 2008.
