  1. To a pot over medium heat, add 2 tbsp oil and 2 tbsp vegan butter. Once butter is melted, add onions and sauté for 1 minute then add in garlic and sauté for 30 seconds. Add in tomatoes and saute for 3 minutes. Add a generous pinch of salt.
  2. Add in the diced chayotes, potatoes, cilantro, mix well then add in broth and let it all simmer…for a small kick, Cut a slit in a Serrano and add to the soup. Simmer over medium high heat for 30 minutes or until chayote is soft and tender. 
  3. If you have a hand immersion blender, blend 1/2 the soup. Or you can carefully spoon half the soup to a blender, blend, then add it back into the soup! This makes the soup even more flavorful and a great texture! Taste and add salt to your liking! 
  4. Serve with fresh cilantro, a squeeze of fresh lime juice, sliced avocado and scoop of Mexican rice!
