freaky veggies

I have no idea what this vegetable is. The final cooked texture was sort of melon/cucumber-like. The outside was really prickly. It had a mild, greenish taste, sort of like wintermelon.

stir-fried beef and vegetables
I marinated the beef in sa cha sauce, soy sauce and garlic, and then stir fried it together with onions and the mystery vegetable.

Um ... wanna know what it is? (I only ask because I think "freaky mystery vegetable" sounds much cooler.)

Hey Daph, I would love to know what it is. I think I saw one in the market the other day, but forgot to look at the label.

I believe what you've got there is a chayote squash.

Yeah, it's a chayote. We used to eat it all the time in Panama. My grandma put it in soups, and she made soup almost every day.
