Directions
Try chayote (chi-OH-tay), a mild Mexican squash that looks like a green pear: Whisk the juice of 2 limes, 2 tablespoons olive oil and a pinch each of sugar and salt in a bowl. Thinly slice 1 peeled chayote, 1 avocado and 4 radishes; gently toss with the dressing.

I had high hopes since I like all the ingredients in the recipe. I was disappointed. The radishes were too strong for the salad. After eating some of it I realized it was missing something so I added fresh parsley. It helped but not enough to where I'd make it again.

Nice and refreshing. The radishes pick it up. I always wondered about those Chayotes at the store and how they can be used.

I've made this recipe several times. It's light and refreshing and a great change of pace. The chayote is crisp and is a perfect compliment to the creamy avocado, radish and lime flavors.
