Your Best New Year's Resolution Dish
Whether they heed them or not, everyone makes New Year's resolutions, and they're often about food. This week, we're looking for recipes that reflect your resolutions in some way. Your submission doesn't necessarily have to be "healthy" (although it can be); it could be something you've wanted to make but never have, or a dish you've been trying to perfect. It's up to you!

The kale goes right on top of the quinoa. With the cover on the pot, it steams until it's just tender but still has a bit of a bite.
