baked cod fish with tomato cheese sauce and bacon
To be honest, I made this for another recipe contest. This was not chosen but my husband loved it very much and I did too. Big flavor and a crunchy, crispy texture which is fun to eat. I just wanted to share this recipe.

We were surprised at how much we loved this baked cod recipe. With the texture of cornbread dressing, it's an easy dinner we'll make again. The cheese, bacon, tomatoes, rice, and spinach are delicious. Since cod is a mild-flavored fish, the combination of ingredients adds a nice flavor. As you grab a bite, the layers come together for a delicious mouthful. You'll notice in the final photos we swapped ramekins so you can see the layers.
