1
Prepare Tomatoes
Dice the tomatoes into small pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
2
Add Basil and Garlic
Chop the fresh basil leaves and mince the garlic cloves. Add both to the bowl with the tomatoes.
3
Season the Mixture
Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the tomato mixture. Mix gently to combine all ingredients.
4
Let it Marinate
Allow the tomato mixture to sit for about 10-15 minutes to let the flavors meld.

5
Slice the Baguette
Cut the baguette into 1/2 inch thick slices.
6
Brush with Olive Oil
Using a brush, apply olive oil to both sides of each slice of bread.
7
Grill the Bread
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Grill the bread slices for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden and crispy.

8
Top the Bread
Once the bread is grilled, remove it from the heat and spoon the tomato mixture over each slice.
9
Drizzle Balsamic Glaze
Drizzle balsamic glaze over the topped bread for added flavor.

Serve Immediately
Arrange the bruschetta on a serving platter and serve immediately while the bread is still warm.
