CHAYOTE OR MIRLITON SALAD
From a 1998 issue of Sunset Magazine. I use roasted red bell pepper instead of the raw one. Mozzarella or any firm cheese of your choice which will hold its shape can be substituted for the cheddar. Other fresh chiles can be used instead of jalapeno.

Steps:
- In a 3- to 4-quart pan over high heat, bring about 1 1/2 quarts water to a boil. Peel chayotes and cut into 1/2-inch cubes (the soft seed is edible). Add diced chayotes to water; simmer until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain, then shock in ice water and drain again.
- Gently combine cooked chayote jalapeno, roasted peppers, cheese, avocado, and green onions in a large bowl.
- Mix vinegar, oil, and cilantro, then to the mixed vegetables and cheese. Mix gently. Season to taste.

MIRLITON
Mirliton (chayote) squash is the vegetable that is used to make this wonderful dressing. It's very popular here in Louisiana around the holidays.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add mirliton, and boil until tender, about 45 minutes. Drain, cool, and peel. Cut in half, remove seeds, and cut into cubes.
- When the mirliton are almost done, bring another pot of water to a boil. Add shrimp, and cook for about 5 minutes, until pink. Drain shrimp, reserving the water for later. Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry onion and garlic in the oil until soft. Transfer to a 9x13 inch baking dish. Add the shrimp, ham, and cubed mirliton. Beat the egg in a small dish with a tablespoon of the water from the shrimp; pour into the baking dish. Mix in the bread crumbs, parsley, thyme, salt and pepper until evenly blended. If it seems a little dry, add a little more water from the shrimp. You have the choice to freeze, refrigerate, or bake at this point. Sprinkle some more breadcrumbs on top if desired.
- Bake for 1 hour and 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown on top.
