This may sound a bit weird but give it a try before you count it out. Butternut squash actually make a pretty good substitute for potatoes. I have tried fries before with this squash and they are excellent, check out that post here. Sometimes I wonder not if but how my tastes have changed after almost an entire year of no grains or potatoes. In the end it really doesn't matter, I make food I love and I feel great!
