Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    I was stunned to learn that chayote is extremely nutritious after being reminded that to our tastes, it is similar in texture to cooked cucumbers but with no discernible flavor. I added Tajín, we ate it, but I’m relegating it back to soups and stews.
