Though I love sweet potatoes. Sadly, these are not a HCG friendly food. Butternut squash is a low glycemic food approved for the modified OWL diet.
I have been playing around with the texture of this food and found it to be a good substitute for a potato.
Our local Walmart Neighborhood store carries fresh, steam in a bag, cubed butternut squash. Otherwise, have fun chopping and peeling and cubing it yourself :)
1 bag of the cubed steam in bag butternut squash
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon splenda
4-8 sprays of non-calorie spray butter (I Cannot Believe It's Not Butter or equivalent)
Microwave the squash for 3 to 4 minutes. Add squash to skillet and mix in cinnamon, splenda, and spray butter. Cook with 1/4 cup water to further soften. Mash with a potato masher or add directly to food processor and blend until smooth. Soooo good!
