Add asparagus to an oven safe dish and add garlic, salt, pepper, lemon slices, and squeeze the juice from ½ the lemon on top.
Cook for 20-22 minutes, until asparagus starts to brown (if using thinner asparagus, timing may be less).
While the asparagus is cooking, blend all of the ingredients for the vegan parmesan cheese in a food processor and blend until the mixture is finely ground.
Remove from the oven and top with vegan parm and lemon zest and ENJOY!
