Chayote Squash With Cauliflower and Sherry image

I decided to try a chayote after seeing them on sale at my grocery store for only $0.50 each. I had no idea what to do with it and decided to cook it with another ingredient I never know what to do with, cauliflower. For a recipe I just made up, everything turned out really great!

The sherry sauce was the perfect finishing touch for this dish. It was flavorful and slightly sweet, with a hint of acidity. It really brought all the components of the dish together.

The cauliflower in this dish was roasted to perfection. It was tender and slightly caramelized, with a nutty flavor. I loved the contrast between the crispy roasted cauliflower and the soft chayote squash.

This was my first time cooking chayote squash and I was pleasantly surprised! The flavor was mild and slightly sweet, and the texture was a bit like a cross between a potato and a zucchini. I will definitely be experimenting with this vegetable more

The sherry sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would use a different type of wine next time.

I found the cauliflower to be a bit too crunchy. I think I would cook it for a little longer next time.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning. I added some salt, pepper, and garlic powder and it was much better.
