2 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and pepper to taste
1 pound baby potatoes, halved
2 cups baby carrots
1 red onion, cut into wedges
2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

- Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour half of the maple glaze over them. Allow them to marinate while you prepare the vegetables.
- Prep the Vegetables: In a large bowl, combine the halved baby potatoes, baby carrots, and red onion wedges. Drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss until the vegetables are evenly coated.
