Ordering
How does ordering work?
We cook in small weekly batches. Choose a plan (the 5-meal Hero Box or the 3-meal Nourish Boost) or single meals from This Week's Menu, pick your meals, and check out. Your meals are cooked fresh for that week's collection or delivery day.
When is the order cut-off?
Orders close on Thursday at 5pm for the following week. The exact dates for the current week are shown at the top of This Week's Menu.
How do I choose my meals?
On the Hero Box and Nourish Boost pages, pick each meal from the drop-downs before adding the box to your cart. The Hero Box allows up to 2 salmon meals, the Nourish Boost up to 1. Lamb chops aren't included in plans but can be ordered as a single meal.
Which plan should I choose?
Hero Box – 5 meals, our best value and most popular. Nourish Boost – 3 meals, a great way to try us. Single meals – top up a plan or order just what you need. You can add Nature Nibbles protein balls to any plan.
Why are orders pre-orders?
We only cook what has been ordered, so nothing is wasted and everything reaches you fresh. Your order is reserved for the next cooking day.
Collection & delivery
When will I get my meals?
Free collection from Bradford is on Tuesday. Delivered orders arrive on Wednesday.
How much is delivery?
Next-day chilled delivery is £5.99 to anywhere in mainland UK. Collection from Bradford is free.
Where do you deliver?
Across mainland UK. If you live in a remote area, please email us before ordering so we can confirm we can reach you.
How do the meals stay fresh in transit?
Each meal is sealed in its own tray and packed in an insulated box with ice packs. Please make sure someone can take the delivery in, as meals need to go into the fridge when they arrive.
Our food
Is the food halal?
Yes. All our meat is HMC certified, and every meal is halal and tayyib.
What does "tayyib" mean?
Tayyib means good, pure and wholesome. For us it means food that is not only halal, but also organic, ethically sourced and free from additives, preservatives and anything artificial.
Is everything organic?
We use organic herbs, spices, vegetables and pulses, with grass-fed meat and wild salmon. All meals are free from additives and preservatives.
Do the meals contain allergens?
Nature Nibbles contain nuts and seeds. For allergen details on any meal, please email us before ordering and we'll help you choose safely.
Storing & heating
How long do the meals last?
Keep meals in the fridge and eat within 2–3 days of delivery, or freeze them on arrival for up to 1 month.
How do I heat my meals?
Our paper-based Novato trays are BPA-free and safe in the oven, microwave and freezer (up to 180°C). Always heat until piping hot all the way through.
Microwave (800W): pierce the film a few times and heat for 3–4 minutes. Peel back the film, stir, then heat for another 1–2 minutes. Leave to stand for 1 minute.
Oven: preheat to 180°C (160°C fan) – no hotter, as this is the tray's limit. Peel back one corner of the film and heat on a baking tray for 20–25 minutes, stirring halfway.
From frozen: defrost overnight in the fridge first, then heat as above.
Ovens and microwaves vary, so check your meal is steaming hot in the middle before eating.
Subscriptions
How do subscriptions work?
Choose "Subscribe & Save" on a plan and save 7%. Your box is reserved for you every week before orders open to everyone else, so you never miss a cooking day.
Can I skip, pause or cancel?
Yes, at any time. Use the link in your order confirmation email to manage your subscription.
Gifts
Can I gift meals to someone?
Yes. Gift a Month sends 28 meals (7 a week for 4 weeks) to someone you love for £310, delivery included. We also offer gift cards.
Problems with an order
Something is wrong with my order. What do I do?
Please check your order when it arrives and email feedme@nourishingbowl.co.uk straight away, with a photo if possible. As food is perishable we can't accept returns, but we will always put things right.
