Can I eat grilled halloumi while pregnant?

Yes

Grilled halloumi is generally safe for you to enjoy during pregnancy, mama, especially if it's made from pasteurized milk and cooked until steaming hot.

grilled halloumi — Yes during pregnancy
A note from Emily
Emily's honest take
Pregnancy guidelines indicate that soft cheeses like halloumi are safe if they are made from pasteurized milk. Cooking it until it's steaming hot, like when grilled, further reduces any potential risk by killing harmful bacteria like Listeria. Halloumi can also be a good source of calcium and protein for you and your growing baby.

Always check with your OB if you have any specific concerns.
