Fresh salmon is the most expensive ingredient on the list

Ingredients that drive the cost:

Fresh salmon fillet

💡 Tips to reduce cost:

  • Replace fresh salmon with fresh mackerel or fresh sardines: same omega-3, 3× cheaper
  • Frozen salmon (thawed in fridge overnight) is a good budget alternative
  • Prefer small oily fish (sardines, mackerel) which are also the richest in omega-3
