Guest guest Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 Buttercup squash is a winter squash, a "cousin" of butternut. It is considered high-carb, so if you're dealing with yeast then you want to limit or avoid buttercup just as you do butternut and acorn and pumpkin.... I don't tolerate tomatoes, so only have them once in a while, and cook them with the seeds -- in other words I don't bother deseeding them. Kim M.

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 You can eat plenty of summer squashes, even if you're dealing with yeast. Zucchini is a really good summer squash; I ate a lot of it during my drastic yeast elimination phase. Makes a tasty nut-flour muffin (recipe in BTVC). Crookneck or other yellow summer squashes are also OK, although contain slightly more sugar than zucchini. During my really drastic yeast elimination phase I ate zucchini every day, but had the crookneck squash every other day. Leafy green veggies are also low-carb. I don't tolerate anything raw, and can't eat a lot of the spicier greens like mustard greens, but do great with cooked spinach and collards and other mild greens. I just steam the greens until limp, then add a bit of salt. I also chop up spinach and add to my stir fry dishes.
