Are you looking for a healthy meal that is jam-packed with flavor and nutrients? Maybe you are looking for a good meal prep recipe that you can enjoy all week for lunch or dinner? If so, you have come to the right place because I have both a scrumptious recipe and savings on healthy groceries.

Inexpensive health food store

Finding healthy groceries, supplements, and body care products for reasonable prices can be a challenge. Local grocery stores are seemingly limited to 1 aisle of good for you products and often skimp on selection.

Plus, the prices are absurd!! The markup on healthy groceries is one that I can barely fathom when shopping in-store.

Thankfully, online retailers like iHerb have literally over 30,000 products for all active, and health-conscious lifestyles. This online health superstore has everything from healthcare items to groceries.

The best part is the prices at iHerb! Quality, well-known brands are super inexpensive and go on sale frequently! Plus, there is always shipping deals–right now, U.S. customers can get FREE shipping when you spend $20 or more!!!

All iHerb items are shipped from climate-controlled warehouses and they even ship to over 150 countries!!! In the US, you can choose expedited shipping from UPS, Lasership® and more! (see site for details) Impressively, they offer customer service 24 hours a day / 7 days a week in 10 different languages!! Finding quality customer services these days is like winning the lottery!!

iHerb grocery haul

For this grilled salmon recipe, I needed a few items in my pantry. I go through so much honey, mustard, and olive oil so I picked up some of those staples. Let’s explore my recipe ingredients & mini grocery haul.

Grilled honey mustard salmon ingredients

For 6 days of meal prep, you will need 3 lbs of wild-caught salmon, 1 lb of green beans trimmed, 1 1/2 cups of dry quinoa prepared, fresh garlic. These ingredients include the following which you can find at iHerb.

Arrowhead Mills, Organic Quinoa

I decided to mix things up and serve my salmon with quinoa. This is the only brand I have used that isn’t bitter or super earthy tasting after being soaked. I recommend it for any of you who are looking to try a new brand. One dry cup makes 4 portions.

FunFresh Foods, Himalayan Pink Sea Salt
If you have never tried this salt, you are missing out! It really enhances the natural flavor not only in my salmon, but also with any recipe. We use it in recipes, and even as a natural gargle and bath addition.

Gaea, Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil
I love the freshness and flavor from this brand. It worked nicely to oil my fish for the grill.

Simply Organic, Paprika
I love paprika and needed a new jar since we use it a lot in recipes. This brand makes affordable, organic spices.

Sir Kensington’s, Dijon Mustard
I fell in love with this brand 6 years ago when I reviewed their line. Their mustard and ketchup line is so good! I knew this product would flavor my fish perfectly!

Wholesome Organic Honey

We use so much honey around here–about a bottle per week to be exact! When we don’t buy locally the Wholesome, Organic Honey, 16 oz is my go-to for flavor and price!

Mini grocery haul

I also needed a few other grocery items that I typically buy at online retailers like iHerb. Check out some of the variety they have to offer!

Bergin Fruit and Nut Company, Raw Pecan Halves
I love these for making candied nuts or homemade granola.

Celestial Seasonings, Herbal Tea, Caffeine Free, Sleepytime
Every night, Jared and I drink a cup before bed!

Late July, Multigrain Tortilla Chips, Sea Salt by the Seashore

These are so good paired with some fresh hummus!

Now Foods, Organic Better Stevia, Zero-Calorie Sweetener
This is all I use to sweeten my coffee and tea. I love how this brand is not at all bitter!

Simply Organic, Madagascar Vanilla
As an avid baker, I go through so much of this stuff. This is my favorite brand to use!

Salmon grilling tips

Now that you know how awesome iHerb is for organic and wholesome pantry staples and ingredients, it is recipe time! Since there is an art to grilling salmon that has a sugary component, I wanted share some key tips.

• Since this recipe features honey which typically burns quick when grilled, I do not recommend flipping this fish, filet side down.

• I cooked my salmon on nonstick, heavy-duty aluminum foil for ease of cooking and technique.
• The salmon was coated in oil to produce a nice skin, and to keep the fish moist.

• ONLY add the honey topping to the very top of the filet with a pastry brush before grilling or it will burn the skin and edges.
• If you bake this recipe, bake it on a foil-lined baking sheet with oil bottoms. Spoon the sauce onto the top and bake for 8-10 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
• I heated my grill to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and placed the salmon in foil uncovered. You want to make a rectangle foil pan where the edges are bent upwards. Do not cover the fish or you will have a lot of excess liquid.
• This salmon only took 15 minutes to be fully cooked on a foil.
• For the quinoa and steamed green beans, once-cooled, portion them into the meal prep containers before adding one portion of fish.

Salmon meal prep

As mentioned, this recipe was a perfect meal prep recipe. We were able to get 6 meals out of 3 lbs of fish and 1 1/2 cups of dry quinoa prepared. We also steamed 1 lb of trimmed green beans to serve with the meal.

The fish reheated beautifully in the microwave for 1 1/2 minutes. This meal is good for 5 days when stored properly in the fridge. I ate it for lunch for 5 days and for dinner one day.
