1
Slice the Bread
Cut the baguette or Italian bread into 1/2 inch thick slices.
2
Grill the Bread
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Brush both sides of each slice of bread with olive oil. Grill the slices for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and have grill marks.

3
Prepare the Tomatoes
Dice the tomatoes and place them in a mixing bowl. Add salt and black pepper to taste.
4
Add Basil and Mozzarella
Chop the fresh basil leaves and add them to the bowl with the tomatoes. Tear the mozzarella cheese into small pieces and add it as well.
5
Add Balsamic Vinegar
Drizzle the balsamic vinegar over the tomato, basil, and mozzarella mixture. Gently toss to combine all ingredients.

6
Top the Bread
Spoon the tomato and mozzarella mixture generously onto each slice of grilled bread.
7
Serve
Arrange the bruschetta on a platter and serve immediately as a delicious appetizer.
