    Cut in the style of an apple, toss with cinnamon and splenda and sprinkle with flax seed as an apple crisp. On OWL? Add a nut "crust".

      Do you bake it - or can it be eaten raw?

        I bake it. I suppose it can be eaten raw. Never tried it that way.

          i've had it raw. it has a type of crunch like an apple. when you able to have peanut butter, you can dip the chayote.

            I made the apples with it then pilled it into a acorn squash (I think) and baked it. DELISH!! Think I found the recipe in an atkins book??

            One day I will make these...

              tried chayote today for the first time, sauteed in butter. Extremely unexciting.. until you add just the touch of Splenda and cinnamon..I added a little allspice. Quite nice, I poured a little cream over it. Liking it!

                LOL It IS unexciting isn' t it? But then, so is the yellow summer squash.
                The cinnamon and cream sounds like a good addition! Kind of like peaches n cream Hmmmm Maybe with a little flaxseed it would make a nice warm winter breakfast....
