  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Halve tomatoes. If you receive one whole tomato instead, not to worry; simply core tomato, cut into 1/2" dice, and proceed with recipe instructions.

    Halve zucchini lengthwise. Cut halves into 1/4" half-moons. Zucchini quantity may vary, but total weight will remain the same. Don't worry; recipe instructions are not impacted.

    Halve lemon. Cut one half into wedges and juice the other half.

    Mince garlic.

    Pat salmon dry and season flesh side with a pinch of pepper. Drizzle lemon juice over salmon.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Salmon

    In a mixing bowl, thoroughly combine mayonnaise, half the cheese (reserve remaining for vegetables), and pesto. Set aside.

    Place salmon on prepared baking sheet, skin-side down. Top evenly and completely with pesto-mayonnaise mixture.

  3. 3

    Roast the Salmon

    Roast salmon in hot oven until salmon reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 10-12 minutes.

    While salmon roasts, continue recipe.

  4. 4

    Cook the Vegetables

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil.

    Add garlic, zucchini, and a pinch of salt to hot pan and stir until lightly browned, 3-5 minutes.

    Add tomatoes and a pinch of salt. Stir occasionally until tomatoes start to release juice, 2-4 minutes.
