What exactly do you mean by a platform pedal? I believe that may be what I'm using now,which is a pedal with no clip-in mechanism and a strap over my feet?

Platform pedals are the large flat toothy pedal you get on your bike at time of purchase. The platform pedal I like to use is a large metal platform with pins that really grip the shoes and can feel like you're clipped in but you can jump off the bike in a millisecond with these babies.

Yeah, those are the ones I use now. Should I just stick with them until my knee is 100% then, before jumping on clipless?

Do what's comfortable to YOU. I know Frogs are easy to clip out of for me but when my knee is extra cranky, it's nice to have the platform pedal to switch to.
