Winter squash is a starchy veggie so we consider it to be in the starches category. Winter squash isn’t as calorie dense as say oats or potatoes, but it is not a green veggie which has very few calories. For starches like oats and potatoes, sticking to 1/4-1/2c as your serving is where you want to be. For the winter squash, you can have 1/2c-1c. if you look at the nutritional values you will see what I mean.
