I forgot to pick up a butternut squash, I definitely can, BUT I have sweet potatoes, could I use that as an exchange for the recipe or no?
300g of butternut squash has the same amount of carbs as 113 g of sweet potato. 113÷300=approx 38%, so to make sweet potatoes fit the recipe you’d have to use 38% of the measurement given. The recipe calls for 1 cup of squash, so you should be able to use just over 1/3 cup of sweet potatoes and have it be equivalent.

Nice! Quite the numbers there lol. Good work.

I don’t know what the amount would be compared to the squash. If you want to plug the recipe in to see the totals you can. When we are talking a recipe, it harder to give advice on how to exchange. I do know 1 cup of squash has 60 cals with 16g of carbs compared to 1 cup sweet pot has 180 cals and 41g carbs so not an even swap for the recipe.
