So what do Americans love to eat in January? Let’s brain-storm. Saveur magazine says rum-soaked broiled grapefruit. (That must be for retired people.) In the U.K., one popular site says Leek and Gruyere Gratin, which sounds delicious. And since I want it to be calorie-sensible on weeknights, I’m all about hearty stews packed with vegetables, meat or fish, and interesting international flavors, like African Peanut Stew; Chili with Tofu and Butternut Squash, and Slow Cooker Black Bean Enchiladas. Make it calorie-friendly and lovable in January.
