  • 1/2 cup diced chayote squash

  • 1 1/2 cups shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese (6 ounces)
  • 1 tablespoon margarine or butter

    Melt margarine in 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Place 3 filled tortillas at a time, seam sides down, in margarine. Cook about 6 minutes, turning after 3 minutes, until golden brown.

  • If you can't find chayote, substitute 1/2 cup diced zucchini or yellow summer squash.
  • Chayote is a gourdlike fruit about the size and shape of a very large pear. It has pale green skin and white, rather bland-tasting flesh surrounding one soft seed. Chayotes were once the principal food of the Aztecs and Mayas.
