Choose the precise recipe, range and portion
Portion help describes approximately 280g smaller singles, 380g singles and 760g doubles, weighed before reheating; exact recipes vary. Low FODMAP Teriyaki Salmon + Whole Grain Rice is a distinct 397g single at £8.79, with 532 kcal, 28g protein, 7.7g fibre, 4g saturates and 1.7g salt. The separate Mediterranean salmon recipe is not the same panel.
Mediterranean Veggie Bean Chilli is 393g at £7.49 for one, with 488 kcal, 19g protein, 14g fibre, 2.4g saturates and 1.7g salt. It uses beans, tofu, wholegrain rice and quinoa; soy is declared and shared-site warnings still apply. Dietary filters help narrow recipes but do not establish allergy safety or a personal medical benefit. The menu also lists vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free and dairy-free choices; read each selected product’s exact conditions.

Freezer storage and product-specific reheating
Keep the selected frozen meals below −18°C and follow the actual pack. The Low FODMAP salmon product says not to refreeze after defrosting; that specific instruction takes priority over general FAQ wording. Its single-portion microwave directions are eight minutes at 800W plus two minutes’ rest, with stirring as directed. Other recipes and appliances differ.
Plan freezer capacity before ordering. Portion help gives single-tray dimensions of 18 × 13 × 5cm and two-person trays of 25 × 17 × 5cm, and advises reheating only once.

Minimums, postcode and subscription changes
Newer pricing and subscription help both give a £50 minimum; the FAQ retains a seven-item subscription condition. Delivery starts at £6.50, with free delivery over £67.50 where offered and postcode exceptions. Dedicated delivery help excludes Northern Ireland, Scottish Highlands/islands, Isle of Man, Scilly Isles and Channel Islands, while some product/FAQ wording differs. Use the actual postcode result and basket rule.
One-off purchases and subscriptions are available. Subscriptions renew at the selected frequency until cancelled. Current help asks for changes at least two days ahead and says processed orders cannot be edited; the terms specify before 08:00 two days before delivery. Use the earlier precise deadline and account reminder. Delivery dates are Tuesday–Saturday where available; the courier assigns the time slot. Contact hello@fielddoctor.co.uk or 01225 941141.

Planning questions
Do I need a subscription?
No. One-off ordering is available. A subscription repeats at the chosen frequency until cancelled; changing an already processed order is separate.
Is £8.79 the delivered price for any meal?
No. It is the displayed single-portion Low FODMAP salmon price. Other recipes/sizes differ, and basket minimums and delivery are additional.
Can general refreezing advice override a pack instruction?
No. The salmon product says not to refreeze after defrosting. Follow the actual meal’s storage, expiry and reheating instructions.
