**Ingredients:**

- Cod fillets

- Asparagus

- Tomatoes

- Lemon juice and zest

- Romano or Parmesan cheese

- Olive oil

- Salt and pepper

**Instructions:**

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F.

2. Brush a 15x10x1-in. baking pan with oil and place the cod and asparagus in it. Add tomatoes, cut sides down.

3. Brush the fish with lemon juice and sprinkle with lemon zest.

4. Sprinkle the fish and vegetables with Romano or Parmesan cheese.

5. Bake until the fish just begins to flake easily with a fork, which should take about 12 to 15 minutes depending on the size of the fillets.

You can also add other ingredients like garlic, capers, or olives for added flavor. If you want more side dishes, you could make a side of rice or mashed potatoes - both will go beautifully with the juices from the baked cod. Enjoy your Cod and Asparagus Bake!
