Preparation Instructions

1. Prepare the Garlic Rounds

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Place them on a baking sheet.

2. Garlic Infusion

Peel the garlic cloves and rub them over one side of each bread round. Drizzle olive oil over the rounds.

3. Toast the Bread

Bake the bread in the preheated oven for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy.

4. Prepare the Tomato Mixture

While the bread is toasting, dice the Roma tomatoes and place them in a bowl. Chop the fresh basil leaves and add them to the tomatoes.

5. Season the Mixture

Drizzle the tomato and basil mixture with olive oil, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Toss gently to combine.

6. Assemble the Bruschetta

Once the bread is toasted, remove it from the oven. Spoon the tomato mixture onto each garlic round.

7. Garnish

Top each bruschetta with shaved parmesan cheese.

8. Serve

Serve immediately while the bread is still warm.
