Add Basil and Garlic
Chop the fresh basil leaves and mince the garlic cloves. Add them to the bowl with the diced tomatoes.

Season the Mixture
Sprinkle the salt and black pepper over the tomato mixture and toss gently to combine.
4
Let it Rest
Allow the topping mixture to sit for at least 10 minutes to let the flavors meld.

6
Slice and Brush Bread
Slice the baguette into 1/2 inch thick slices. Brush both sides lightly with olive oil.

Place the bread slices on the grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crisp.

8
Top with Tomato Mixture
Remove the grilled bread from the grill and place on a serving platter. Spoon the tomato mixture generously on top of each slice.

Drizzle Balsamic Glaze
Drizzle balsamic glaze over the topped bruschetta for added flavor.
