“If you really care about your health – and the specifics of it – then Field Doctor is well worth trying. They’re a new player in the meal prep services arena, aiming to create amazing food that feeds your health. And by that, I don’t just mean food to help you lose weight or build muscle. Field Doctor lets you choose your meals to manage allergies and intolerances, reduce inflammation, improve gut health, optimise menopause or peri-menopause… the list goes on. Their website is incredibly thorough, which encouraged me to put huge amounts of trust into what they have created.

“Everything on my tailor-made plan (centred around eating more plants and reducing inflammation) sounded delicious. Chickpea masala curry, Italian meatballs, Malaysian tofu curry and red pesto and roasted vegetable penne were just some of the concoctions it threw up to me.

“When my meals arrived, although totally not important when it came to the meals themselves, the first thing I noticed was the branding. It appeals to the minimalist in me, with meals boxed up in Tiffany-blue packaging. Very chic.

“Inside, the meals included 100% whole ingredients – nothing processed round these parts – and they came frozen for freshness. I was a little worried about whether I’d need to defrost them before cooking, but you can actually reheat them from frozen – mostly in around five minutes.

“I sometimes find that frozen meals can go a tad water-y when you reheat them – which can lead to them losing some flavour. And sadly, this was the case with some of the Field Doctor meals I tried. They were all still delicious, don’t get me wrong, but just a bit less flavourful than other services I’ve tried.

“That aside, I would order from them again. You can pick a regular delivery day, there’s loads of choice, and they’re a great healthy option to ensure you avoid too many takeaways.”
