RE: zucchini vs steak

[Guest guest]

I looked up these statistics on the web...not sure how acurate they are but

the meat one was the same on several websites. The summer squash/zucchini I

could only find on one website.

 

These stats are from : http://www.ntwrks.com/~mikev/chart3a.htm

 

 

 

 

SQUASH, SUMMER, COOKED, DRAIND 1 CUP 35calories 2grams

protein 1gram fat

 

BEEF, CKD,BTTM ROUND,LEAN+ FAT 3 OZ 220 calories 25grams

protein 13grams fat

 

So If you ate 12.5 cups of zucchini you would have the same amount of

protein as a steak and about the same amount of fat too. Hmmmmmm.....

that's kind of interesting.
