This easy to make vegetable side dish is fresh and delicious! Parmesan Roasted Asparagus and Tomatoes can be made any time of year, but I love using homegrown tomatoes from my own garden.
Bursting with flavor makes it great on its own or served with chicken, fish or steak.
Parmesan Roasted Asparagus and Tomatoes

We grill a lot of salmon (on a cedar plank) in the summer and this simple side dish using fresh vegetables is the perfect companion. You could even make this on the BBQ with a vegetable grilling pan. Why heat up the kitchen if you don’t have to.
How to Make Roasted Asparagus and Tomatoes
We roast asparagus all the time, but I love combining the taste and texture with fresh tomatoes.

What to Serve with Parmesan Roasted Tomatoes and Asparagus
As mentioned, we love making it with grilled salmon, however, it goes well with any protein. Grilled or baked chicken, BBQ steak, or pork chops. It’s a very versatile vegetable side dish that is simple and fast to make.
If you’re wanting a meatless dinner, try serving with risotto or even on top of pasta.
It’s also great for spring or summer holidays served right in the casserole dish or on a platter.
Can you use Frozen Asparagus?
If you only have access to frozen asparagus, you’ll want to thaw it first before roasting or baking to avoid it creating too much juice and becoming soggy. Even if the spears are cut into pieces, it should still work for this vegetable side dish.
