Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Minimize sodium by using fresh ingredients and maximizing natural flavors.
In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic cloves, fresh parsley, black pepper, and lemon zest. Mix well.
Place the salmon fillets on one side of the prepared baking sheet.
Brush each salmon fillet generously with the olive oil mixture.
Trim and halve the Brussels sprouts, slice the red bell pepper into strips, and cut the zucchinis into half-moon chunks.
Toss the baby carrots, brussels sprouts, red bell pepper, and zucchini with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, fresh rosemary, and fresh thyme in a separate bowl.
Spread the vegetable mixture in a single layer on the other side of the baking sheet.
Roast in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and easily flakes with a fork.
Meanwhile, occasionally stir the vegetables to ensure even roasting.
Once done, remove from the oven and let rest for a couple of minutes.
Serve the salmon fillets immediately, accompanied by the roasted seasonal vegetables.
