Answer

Yes, Christ did eat meat other than fish. He had to have eaten lamb and/or goat because He kept the Passover.

The Passover was a Holy Day commemorating the Exodus of the Israelites from Egypt; it was a commanded assembly, and it was obligatory. The full regulations are detailed are given in Chapter 12 [all of it] of the Book of Exodus in the Old Testament. The first 5 books of the Bible (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy) are often called the "Law of Moses", or "the Law".

Basically, a lamb was killed and roasted:-

Exo 12:3 Speak to all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth of this month they shall take to them each man a lamb for a father's house, a lamb for a house.

Exo 12:5 Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year. You shall take from the sheep or from the goats.

It could have been either sheep or goat but was probably lamb:-
"From the sheep, or from the goats - The שה 'seh' means either; and either was equally proper .... The Hebrews however in general preferred the lamb to the kid."(Taken from Adam Clark (1715-18320 in his "Commentary on the Bible")

Exo 12:9 Do not eat of it raw, nor boiled at all with water, but roasted with fire, its head with its legs, and with its inward parts.

It was roasted "according to the Law" :-

2Ch 35:13 And they roasted the passover lamb with fire according to the Law. But the holy offerings they boiled in pots, and in kettles, and in pans, and carried to all the sons of the people.

It was not temporary:-

Exo 12:14 And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and you shall keep it a feast to the LORD throughout your generations; you shall keep it a feast by an ordinance for ever.
Exo 12:14 You must celebrate this day as a religious festival to remind you of what I, the LORD, have done. Celebrate it for all time to come." [GNB]

Jesus said the Passover was to be kept forever down to the most minute detail:-

Mat 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
Mat 5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

Mat 5:17 "Do not think that I have come to do away with the Law of Moses and the teachings of the prophets. I have not come to do away with them, but to make their teachings come true.
Mat 5:18 Remember that as long as heaven and earth last, not the least point nor the smallest detail of the Law will be done away with---not until the end of all things. [GNB]

Jesus observed the Passover all his life. Soon after He was born, the Bible says His parents obeyed the Law, which means they would have observed Passover:-

Luk 2:39 When Joseph and Mary had finished doing all that was required by the Law of the Lord, they returned to their hometown of Nazareth in Galilee.

As a child:-

Luk 2:41 Every year the parents of Jesus went to Jerusalem for the Passover Festival.
Luk 2:42 When Jesus was twelve years old, they went to the festival as usual.
Luk 2:43 When the festival was over, they started back home, but the boy Jesus stayed in Jerusalem. His parents did not know this; [GNB]

As an adult at the start of His ministry:-

Joh 2:13 And the Passover of the Jews was near. And Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

Joh 2:23 And as He was in Jerusalem, at the Passover, at the Feast, many believed into His name, seeing the miracles which He did.

At the end of His ministry just before He was crucified:-

Mar 14:12 And on the first day of the Unleavened Bread, when they killed the Passover, His disciples said to Him, Where do You desire that going we may prepare that You may eat the Passover?
Luk 22:7 And the day of the Unleavened Bread came, on which the Passover must be killed.
Luk 22:8 And He sent Peter and John, saying, Having gone, prepare for us the Passover, that we may eat.
Luk 22:9 And they said to Him, Where do You desire that we prepare?
Luk 22:10 And He said to them, Behold, you going into the city, you will meet a man carrying a pitcher of water. Follow him into the house where he goes in.
Luk 22:11 And you will say to the housemaster of that house, The Teacher says to you, Where is the guest room where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?
Luk 22:12 And that one will show you a large upper room which he has spread. Prepare there.
Luk 22:13 And having gone, they found as He had told them, and they prepared the Passover.
Luk 22:14 And when the hour came, He reclined, and the twelve apostles with Him.
Luk 22:15 And He said to them, With desire I desired to eat this Passover with you before My suffering.

(Parallel accounts are in Matthew 26:17-21 and Mark 14:12-18.)
Christ was crucified on the day before the Passover on the Day of Preparation, which was the day the people prepared for the Passover the next day:-

Joh 19:14 Now it was the Preparation Day of the Passover, at about the sixth hour. He said to the Jews, "Behold, your King!"
Joh 19:15 They cried out, "Away with him! Away with him! Crucify him!" Pilate said to them, "Shall I crucify your King?" The chief priests answered, "We have no king but Caesar!"
Joh 19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, "It is finished." He bowed his head, and gave up his spirit.
Joh 19:31 Therefore the Jews, because it was the Preparation Day, so that the bodies wouldn't remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a special one), asked of Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

Christ is our Passover:-
1Co 5:7 You must remove the old yeast of sin so that you will be entirely pure. Then you will be like a new batch of dough without any yeast, as indeed I know you actually are. For our Passover Festival is ready, now that Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.

Some may say Christ cannot be our Passover Lamb because He was killed on the day before the actual day of the Passover. However, priests took their Passover the day before the actual Passover for the rest of the people because for them the Passover was one of the busiest days of the year: it was not a day of rest but a day of work. However they were not breaking the Law by this:-

Mat 12:5 Or have you not read in the Law of Moses that every Sabbath the priests in the Temple actually break the Sabbath law, yet they are not guilty?

Christ is our High Priest, so He could do it:-

Heb 4:14 Let us, then, hold firmly to the faith we profess. For we have a great High Priest who has gone into the very presence of God---Jesus, the Son of God.

Christ not only ate lamb, not only was He our Passover Lamb, but He is the Lamb of God.
