Chaya- the Maya spinach. We enjoy Chaya from our own tree, given to us years ago. A bit of a learning curve for someone who enjoys eating spinach both raw and cooked. Chaya very much tastes like spinach, however must be cooked a while before consuming. Often offered with eggs in local restaurants for a nice breakfast option.
Yes it's a green leafy vegetable, but once prepared, the Chaya can be super delicious in tamalitos, scrambled eggs, and so much more!
