Whether your New Year's resolution was to help yourself or to help the environment, there's a perfect plate out there for you. First, a personal favorite of mine: Slimware Plates. Foolproof and pretty, they secretly help you portion out perfect servings of carbs, proteins and starches ($34.95, slimware.com). And while we wait for the leaves to bloom, you can pick up Verterra's plates, made from fallen palm leaves so they're completely biodegradable and certified compostable. As if that weren't enough, they're reusable, microwavable and happen to be beautiful ($4.99-$6.99, verterra.com)!
