What can I have to substitute Pate?

[Nbg]

Am pg but I really really want Pate. What can I have instead?

I dont like mushroom or veg pate.
Or can I have a little bit of pate? Just a teeny bit

there must be something !!!

I always found just just eating pate was good

I mean have you EVER have food poisoning from pate?

Don't sue me though

Alternatively I make this tuna pate:

• 3 boiled eggs
• can of tuna
• spoonful of dried tarragon
• 2 oz butter

blend, swear thickly on buttered toast

A little bit will be fine. It's the vitamin A in pate thats dangerous to pregnant women but I did some research when I was pregnant and basically you'd have to eat a tub of pate everyday for it to disfigure your baby. A little bit, once will be fine.

There's a small listeria risk - it's not just about vitamin a.

But if the pate is from a good source, within date, and you have no other worries about infection, I'd go for it. I ate a lot of pate while pg with DS2, and he lived to tell the tale.

Oh god I think I will love you both till eternity

Thats like music to my ears!

i ate it while pg

didnt know there was a risk

I'm glad my pregnancy pate craving has helped you out!

Make sure you enjoy every mouthful - and have some for me as I'm on a diet and can't eat any

I like mp's recipe - but is swearing on toast like swearing on the bible?

I am one happy lady, lol.

Am going to go out and but spinach and rocket and some crusty bread and smother with pate.

Yumm

about swearing on toast

there was a thread recently saying tis all pates that are off limits when pg

something to do with how it'smade apparently

gutted - had been scoffing the waitrose fishy ones

Pate for Pregnancy:

• 3 raw egg yolks
• glass whisky
• 3lbs liver
• 3lbs prawns (cheap in Asda because past use-by date)

Whizz together, swear on toast

You could try making duck rillettes

one recipe here

MP - sure you missed the 8lb of unpasteurised runny bkue cheese from your recipe

oh yes Ikloo

You can have any tinned pate that isn't liver pate. That's totally fine and risk free, though the risks from tinned liver pate in small quantities would be quite acceptable to me, personally.

thanks petronella but its too faffy lol.

Need something instant

tinned pate = catfood imo

You can buy rillettes our local deli sells it in jars

ahhh yes, a deli.

Right will go and check.
