Chop the Tomatoes
Dice the fresh tomatoes into small pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
2
Prepare the Basil
Chop the fresh basil leaves roughly and add them to the bowl with the tomatoes.

Add Garlic
Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the tomato and basil mixture.
4
Season the Mixture
Add salt and black pepper to taste. Gently mix everything together.

6
Slice the Baguette
Slice the baguette diagonally into 1/2 inch thick pieces.

Toast the Bread
