Seeds during pureed stage?
Ask your surgeon what his guidance is. We are generally advised to avoid seeds and small nuts until, in some cases 3 months out. Three months is the generally accepted time frame where scars have formed over the staple line and the wound is at its greatest strength.
Before that scare is fully in place, small seeds and nuts can get caught in the staple line and prevent the scar from forming or worse yet re-open it. That could lead to a leak.
A lot depends on how quickly you are healing - ask the surgeon.

So -- eggplant, zucchini and cucumber seeds are all "seeds" that I need to keep an eye on! I could easily see myself going for some baba ganoush and my brain not processing that "seed" info!

You might want to stick a small amount of dip for yourself in a blender or food processor to help it thin up enough for the strainer.
& Thank you for the warm wishes...it is very much appreciated.
