Ground Meats

[Kooky1 96]

My doctor's instructions doesn't really address when I can have ground meats. It does mention that some patients experience discomfort with ground beef, and that pork should be avoided for about three months.

I was thinking of making hummus with ground lamb (a Lebanese dish) during my soft foods phase. Are ground meats okay during that phase or should I wait longer?

I was allowed ground meats during the later portion of my soft foods phase, but you really should ask either your surgeon or nutritionist.

my doctors plan only allowed fish during soft foods - BUT, I dunna like fish. wish I did, but I do not. so they had me very gingerly try scrambled eggs and ground meat. we usually use ground sirloin combined with ground turkey, and I did not have any problems with any of those items. I am really thankful to have a team and NUT who are willing to work with different food issues to find a good plan for each individual patient.
