Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp pure maple syrup, 2 tbsp Dijon mustard, 1 tbsp olive oil, and 3 minced garlic cloves until smooth.
- Step 2: On a rimmed baking sheet, toss 8 oz halved baby carrots, 1 medium diced red bell pepper, and 1 sliced medium zucchini with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper, and 2 sprigs finely chopped rosemary. Spread evenly and roast for 15 minutes.
- Step 3: While vegetables roast, pat dry 4 salmon fillets and season both sides with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper each. Remove vegetables from oven, push to the sides, and place salmon fillets skin-side down in the center.
