So I've gotten into the habit of eating both a starchy and fibrous carbohydrate with each meal.

On the Internet you can rarely find a list of starchy/fibrous vegetables and when you do the lists usually conflict.

Are carrots, peas, and squash starchy or fibrous? Those are my three main questions.

If anyone has a reliable list of starchy and fibrous vegetables that would also help.

Just looking up some nutrition values...

1 c carrot: 3.7 g fiber, 0.7 g starch
1 c peas: 9 g fiber, 7 g starch
1 c summer squash: 2.5 g fiber, 1.5 g starch
1 c winter squash: 5.7 g fiber, 8 g starch

In short, carrots, peas, and summer squash are more fibrous, winter squash is more starchy.
