Wow!   I like the sound of Jicama apples with pork chops!  I guess I could add cinnamon or cloves right?

When my store gets more chayotes in, I'm gonna try a chayote crisp.  :)
Romarc, did you try to make the chayote crisp yet?  If yes, could you share your recipe.  Could I substitute zucchini slices for the chayote?

Chayotes are very easy to grow. Look for one in the store that has a root popping from the bottom or toothpick one over a glass of water submerging only the bottom 1/3rd. Change the water ever couple of days and wait for the root to pop. Plant the squash on its side with the stem end sloping up towards the fence next to a fence in some potting soil and watch the magic. Our fence was filled with Chayote vine and squash all summer long when we did this.
