Anyone with a good recipe for chayote (mirliton)?

They are in the same family as summer squash and melons, so whatever you do with summer squash you can do with chayote. Roast them and make a salad with couscous, make a soup - here is an interesting recipe for roasting them. http://www.adoctorskitchen...

I've used them to make tasty Asian lettuce wraps. Chayote is just a hint of sweetness so it's pretty tasty. Dice them up along with carrots, onions, and whatever other veggies you like (peas, corn etc). Cook with ground meat (either chicken or pork).

Slice them into matchsticks, stir fry with sliced garlic and serano chilies, and pinch of salt.
