Who doesn't like Brussel sprouts?

I really don't like them, they taste bitter and smell horrid.

What do you stuff chokos with, Crystal?

I only ever had them served boiled at my MILs home and never aquired a liking for them.

Love stuffed capsicums, stuffed tomatoes, stuffed mushrooms and cabbage rolls.

The quickest and easiest sauce to serve with any of those is a can of tomato soup, heated without adding water or milk, remove from heat at boiling point and stir in a good dollop of full sour cream.

Bon apetite.

have tried them lightly steamed, sauteed, boiled and raw in juice - just don't like them - they are horrible.

Jimmy I think we call squash butternut pumpkin, and it is one of my favourite veg's.

We do have acorn squash though. Maybe that is what you are talking about.

I'm with you on the squash and brussels Jimmy - yuk. One of our neighbours used to give my Mum chokoes, so awful. I don't know why she couldn't just throw them out because she hated them as well.  I think some apple pies had chokoes in them when people didn't have enough apples - or that could just be a myth created by choko growers.

katey, this is what i think of when i think of squash- yuk.

[katymatey*]

Yes that's them. I don't like them either, they taste of nothing.

Hi Katy and Boris. Still no idea what a choco is....maybe Lind doesn't speak to me?

The squash I'm talking about looks like a zucchini or a gourd......

what you posted is a choko, the green thing otherwise known as chayote - but not peyote.

[lind9650]

Jimmy, yes, your picture of the Chayote is what we call chokos.

And boris, you are righ the little butternut squash are as bad as the chokos. Only they are a pretty shape and look good on a plate with other vegies.

Butternut pumpkin are much larger and a different shape. More like a gourd and taste great boiled or baked. Love butternut pumpkin.

Lind, just mince, tomatoes, cooked rice, basil and a bit of cheese on top, yum.

I cook the choko first and scoop some flesh out and mix it with the other ingrediants.
