Butternut Squash Mash
Serving Suggestions:
These can be made ahead and re-heated. They make great leftovers too. For me, these are just as sweet and wonderful as mashed sweet potatoes. And even better than baked potatoes!
Check out these numbers and tell me what you think:
Smashed Butternut Squash
Glycemic index = 8
22 grams of carbs per cup
Mashed Sweet Potatoes
Glycemic index = 17
41 grams of carbs per cup
Baked Potato
Glycemic index = 29
63 grams of carbs per cup
You want all of these numbers to be as low as possible. The squash kicks potato butt! Choose the squash every time and change the traditions in your family for the better.
Enjoy!
Cheers,
