Abundant fruit by danette

Abundant fruit

My neighbor spends every day in his garden (though he works full time). It is called "chayote" or some people know it as "choko". He is from Jamaica and says that if you cook it with meat, it takes on that flavor.
Lovely shot of this very unusual fruit. After looking at it for a long time it reminded me of boxing gloves ;-)

This is really pretty and I like the different shades of green.

I would love to try that! Been cooking up a storm here. BTW, Kira's next year roommate for college is from Ft. Lauderdale!

I have always called these chokos until I came to Canada where they call them chayote squash. We use them often in place of potatoes. Geat capture and I love the bright colour.

Just seeing all that green cheers me up!

Love the blue sky peaking through! A beautiful shot.

oh yes I immediately thought choko - they can be cooked with nearly anything and absorb the flavour to increase the bulk of a meal

@k1w1 Thanks for the clarification! I tried to search Google, because I couldn't understand my neighbor! :-)

@danette she attends Ga Tech. Her best friend is from Ft. Lauderdale and they'll share an apt for year 3. They are all home now though :(

@darylo I thought it was Ga Tech. Times flies! I hope you are all doing well.
