Recipe link claims that “acorn squash is the exact same as zucchini”. Uh, no. They’re a different fruit entirely, and acorn squash have a -ton- more starch and carbs in them.
The author here has not gotten their hands on acorn squash, I would suspect they’ve picked up a [Ronde de Nice Squash](https://www.google.com/search?client=ms-android-verizon&sxsrf=AOaemvJUbzKFdI6sU_nt8mIiIgYKFcqRgA:1635886896217&q=ronde+de+nice&spell=1&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjhm93KyfrzAhXWHc0KHf1CBsoQBSgAegQIARAC&biw=432&bih=736&dpr=2.5) (sometimes sold as a round zucchini) which would better fit the color palette of the picture for the above recipe to boot.
Acorn squash has roughly 24carbs per cup (roughly half a medium squash as the recipe states), where as a zucchini has like 3carbs per cup.
Isn’t squash way more carby than that? I thought squash in general was a no go for keto
I’m getting weirdly inconsistent data for acorn squash net carbs… I don’t know why so many sites list the raw carbs and fiber since no one eats it raw… Does look like if you eat a cup of that acorn squash you’re eating about 29g carbs which includes about 9g fiber for 20g net carbs in a serving. Not as low as zucchini… You may not be eating a full cup though, depending on how thorough of a scraper you are. I wouldn’t eat it every day but it’s doable for keto.
