This Mexican baked fish is my go to weeknight dinner when I need something fast but still feels special. Fresh cod is so lean and healthy, packed with protein and omega 3s that are great for your heart. The best part? The whole thing comes together in just 30 minutes from start to finish. I love how the salsa and sharp cheddar create this amazing flavor combination that makes the fish taste anything but boring. Top it with crunchy corn chips and creamy avocado, and you've got a restaurant quality meal that costs way less and tastes infinitely better than takeout.
