Chayote Edamame Succotash
With a mild cucumberish taste, chayote squash is such a versatile ingredient. The combination of the chayote, corn, edamame, oregano and romano cheese makes for a great flavor and texture pairing. Plus, it only takes 6 minutes to cook! If you’re vegan, just omit the cheese!
