Veggie Fix: Ginisang Sayote

          It is a must that we include a vegetable dish every dinner, especially during weekends.

          So when we do our weekly groceries,  we always buy vegetables that can last for a long time in the fridge. These vegetables are chayote, carrots and potatoes. The good thing is that chayote is very cheap. It is also very versatile, it can be added to Tinola and it can be made into atchara.
