Many New Year's resolutions involve vegetables and we understand that this is the time to think of fresh new starts and healthier eating. Here at 18 Reasons, we think vegetables are a 365-day kind of habit, and we fully support these delicious Southeast Asian recipes to become part of your repertoire and perhaps expand your pantry. We're not to blame if these flavors from Malaysia, Indonesia, and Singapore become a year-round habit for you!
