Hi all!

Anyone have any idea as to the carb content of BUTTERNUT SQUASH? - I checked on the 'tools' section but couldnt find the butternut variety.

Butternut squash is about 10g carbs per 100g of raw squash, ie weigh before cooking.

I check out http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/
whenever I want to get a carb count I'm not sure of. As it is a US site you can deduct the fibre content from the carbs.

We luuurve butternut squash! In fact I am making a beef, beetroot and butternut squash casserole for tonight. As I am adding carrot and onion to the pot it will end up being quite carby. I think of root veggie carbs as 'good carbs' and good for a Sunday indulgence ;-)
