How do I divide up these veggies?

[kac1]

Example~ One cup of (non-salad veggies) peppers is 149g I believe. The green squash is 113g. What if I want to eat both? How do I make a full cup using grams if the squash is more?

Pepper is a salad veggie so you can have two cups of that one but the green squash (zucchini or perhaps chayote?) is a non salad veggie. So you can have plenty of both.
Lots of good nutrients there.

Oops! I forgot about the peppers. But still, how would I divide up different non salad veggies? Do I need to just estimate?

Yeah guesstimate will work fine. It is not going to matter that much if you eat a few pieces more of veggies here or there.

Not necessarily ... different vegetables will weigh different things ... "cup" is a measurement of volume, not weight in this case.

If you have 74.5 grams of peppers and 56.5 grams of squash you will have 1/2 half cup of each for a total of 1 cup.
