What kind of seafood is okay week 5?

Hi all. I have a challenge this evening. Family in from Europe-we will be eating at Red Lobster. Any meal suggestions?

  • Scallops! I have had good luck with scallops in the soft food stage. No breading or anything; just a quick broil And I could only eat 2 oz total that’s 2 large or 4 small scallops. Good luck

    Seafood chowder would be another option. Unfortunately it’s too early to set sail for Cheddar Bay.

Hi. It’s purée transitioning into soft. Thanks. So no shrimp?

Double check with your team, but in my plan only certain fish were named, tuna, salmon and certain white fish (simple), doesn't mean your plan doesn't include it.

Oh crab is ok. Thank you. Thanks for the replies. Ill check with my team to be sure. Thanks.

I had a very tough time with salmon. I was able to eat flounder, tilapia and cod filet without issue.

Love scallops. Thanks.

Shrimp is too fibrous, some baked fish in white sauce so it is moist, you will only be able to eat 2-3 oz at most, eat very slowly because our stomachs can be weird with new foods .

I could eat any seafood as long as I chewed it to purée. Salmon was more difficult because if it’s not cooked properly it is dry and your jaw will get tired before it’s chewed enough.
The key is:
Take small...tiny bites and chew it to death before you swallow.
Enjoy!
