I'd like to get more servings of fruits and veggies into my diet, but some of them can be high in carbs. I know watermelon and cucumbers are low in carbs, but I don't love either of those. What are some other good low-carb choices?
I think it's easier to list the vegetables that are high in carbohydrate: potato, sweet potato, corn, peas, lima beans, winter squash. All of the other veggies are low-carb!
Thanks i needed this information, how about listing the fruits also?
Fruit consistently contains carbohydrate, but there ARE some fruits that also have a higher water content, meaning you can enjoy a larger portion size for the same amount of carbohydrate.
