Stuffed Chayote (Sayote) Squash - Mexican Chayote Relleno Alkaline Vegan Style - Stuffed Mirliton
#Chayote #Mirliton #Sayote
Stuffed Chayote is heavenly when done right. In this video, I'll be showing you how to make my delicious Alkaline Vegan Stuffed Chayote. I tried Chayote (Sayote or Mirliton) for the first time this year and it was blissful. Cooked Chayote actually tastes like cooked Cucumber, so you'd have to season it properly to get that authentic Chayote flavor.

Crawfish stuff Chayote - Mirlitons. Cajun stuff bell peppers
Bell peppers stuffed with Cajun rice dressing & Crawfish stuffed Mirlitons... A raw mirliton crunches like a potato; it tastes like very green cucumber, and a little like zucchini. Sautéed, it tastes like starchy apples; boiled and fried, its translucent green flesh suggests what a honeydew melon would look, feel, and taste like if honeydew melon were a vegetable.
New Orleans Stuffed Mirlitons – Simplified Keto Stuffed Chayote | Keto Recipe
Written recipe:
This keto recipe, New Orleans Stuffed Mirlitons, also called Stuffed Chayote, is an easy keto recipe that uses chayote squash, shrimp and ham. This keto stuffed chayote recipe has been adapted from Charlie Andrews’ version (link below), to be a keto, grain and gluten free version of one of New Orleans’ most popular recipes, especially made during the holidays. However, the chayote squash, which is a fruit native to Mexico, is also very popular in the southern states such as Louisiana where it is called a mirliton. Other names for chayote squash are christophene or christophine, cho-cho, mirliton or merleton, chuchu, cidra, guatila, centinarja, pipinola, pear squash, vegetable pear, chouchoute, choko, güisquil, labu siam, ishkus or chowchow, pataste, or tayota. WOW, so many names! But a chayote by any other name is great to cook with, because of its light taste, and that it takes on the flavour of the other ingredients you are using in your keto recipe. Chayote is versatile and sautéed chayote is a great side dish that complements just about any main protein.
Nutritionally, chayote squash is a wonderful, low carb, keto, diabetic diet, Banting diet ingredient because it is low calorie, low carb and high in fiber. Chayote is also high in vitamins C, B9 (folate) & B6, vitamin K, and high in minerals such as manganese, copper, zinc, potassium and magnesium.
