Introduction
This is quite tasty. I will be making it again. Very easy. Saute on low heat and covered so onions and garlic don't burn and squash steams a bit. This is quite tasty. I will be making it again.

Tips
Next time I make this I think I will increase the amount of squash. It was my first time making and tasting chayote squash. It won't be my last. Does not taste like any other squash I have tasted.
Directions
Cut strips of bacon into 1 inch pieces. Place in skillet and cook until done as desired. While bacon browns, peel squash. Cut in half and remove soft seed from center. Dice squash. Peel onion and dice 1/4 of it to small dice. Remove bacon from pain to paper towel to drain. Drain grease, returning 1 tsp. to saute pan. Add 1 tsp. olive oil and butter, melt together. Add garlic and onion and saute for a couple of minutes. Making sure not to burn them. Add squash, salt and pepper (to taste), and cover and saute till squash is fork tender. Add bacon back to pan and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Taste for seasoning and correct as needed. Serve immediately.
