Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

Cooked quail is safe with precautions during pregnancy when roasted or braised thoroughly. It is a dense source of heme iron, zinc, and complete protein in a compact portion. Ensure the whole bird reaches an internal temperature of 165°F before eating to prevent Salmonella exposure. Pair with roasted root vegetables and a whole-grain pilaf.
