1
Combine Ingredients
In a medium bowl, combine the diced fresh tomatoes, chopped basil leaves, minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until well combined, then set aside to allow the flavors to meld for about 10-15 minutes.

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

3
Top the Bread
Remove the grilled bread from the grill and place it on a serving platter. Spoon generous amounts of the tomato and basil mixture on top of each slice of grilled bread.
