- Optional: garlic, olive oil, herbs, or lemon for flavor
INSTRUCTION:
- Wash, peel, and chop the chayote.

- Serve as part of a balanced diet with other fruits, vegetables, and proteins.
TIPS:
- Start with small portions to see how your body responds.
- Chayote pairs well with lemon, herbs, or mild spices.
