CHAYOTE AND AVOCADO SALAD
In Mexico and other parts of the world, chayote is usually chopped and cooked until tender. But you can skip the cooking and toss it thinly sliced with avocado, radish and your favorite dressing for a crisp refreshing salad.

Steps:
- Try chayote (chi-OH-tay), a mild Mexican squash that looks like a green pear: Whisk the juice of 2 limes, 2 tablespoons olive oil and a pinch each of sugar and salt in a bowl. Thinly slice 1 peeled chayote, 1 avocado and 4 radishes; gently toss with the dressing.
CHAYOTE SALAD
Chayote Salad Recipe | Chayotes are also added to many stews (like the well-liked Caldo de Res and Caldo de Pollo), cooked on their own in a tomato sauce, and also battered fried and served on top of a rich tomato sauce.

Steps:
- Place chayotes in a saucepan and cover with water. Cook over medium-high heat until they are soft and a knife can be inserted easily. This process will take about 15 to 20 minutes depending on the size of the chayotes and how tender they are. Usually, larger chayotes take longer to cook.
- While the chayotes are cooking, mix the olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Before adding the oregano to the dressing, crush the oregano with the tips of your fingers. Add the oregano to the dressing along with the onion and mix. Taste and add more salt if needed, based on your personal taste.
- Once the chayotes are cooked, gently remove from the saucepan using cooking tongs and drain. Now, with the help of a vegetable peeler, remove the peel. Cut the chayote into cubes or slices.
- Place the chayotes on a serving plate and drizzle with the dressing. You can serve this salad either cold or warm. As I mentioned above, you can also add some Queso Fresco cubes to the salad. Enjoy!

STEWED CHAYOTE
A pleasant, somewhat summery side dish from M.S. Milliken & S. Feniger. Especially good with flaky white fish or grilled chicken. I think that the salad and veggie seasoning adds a nice flavor, but omit it if you are avoiding MSG. The chayote is just fine without it.

Steps:
- Quarter the chayote.
- Remove and discard the center seed of each.
- Cut into 1/4-inch slices.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add the chayote, and boil for 5 minutes.
- Drain.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over moderate heat.
- Cook the onions until translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes longer.
- Add the chayote, tomatoes, and water.
- Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook over low heat for 10 minutes.

- NOTE: If you can't locate chayotes (usually found in the tropical or exotic produce section), try using zucchini or cucumbers (yes, cucumbers can be cooked like zucchini).
- These are the closest matches to chayote, taste- and texture-wise.
