Boil chayotes whole until tender but not mushy. Peel, if necessary, remove seed in center and cut into cubes. Set aside. Reserve boiling liquid.
In a large pan, saute vegetables in oil or margarine until limp, then add shrimp. Cook until shrimp are pink, about one minute.
Add chopped chayotes with oregano, thyme, salt, pepper and bay leaves. Add about 3/4 cup bread crumbs. Add 3/4 cup grated Romano cheese. Stir well. Add liquid from boiling chayotes to loosen.
Place in a greased casserole dish. Sprinkle with remaining bread crumbs, then remaining grated cheese. Dot with pieces of margarine.
Bake at 375 degrees F until bubbly. Brown top under broiler. You may freeze it before or after baking.
