2 salmon fillets
1 medium zucchini, sliced into half-moons
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the zucchini and cherry tomatoes. Drizzle with one tablespoon of olive oil, and add the minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss until the vegetables are well coated.
