1
Slice the Baguette
Cut the baguette into 1/2 inch slices on a diagonal for maximum surface area.
2
Grill the Bread
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Brush both sides of each bread slice with olive oil. Place the slices on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and toasted.

3
Chop the Tomatoes
Dice the tomatoes into small pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
4
Add Basil and Garlic
Chop the fresh basil leaves and mince the garlic cloves. Add both to the bowl with the tomatoes.
5
Season the Mixture
Add balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper to the tomato mixture. Stir well to combine all the ingredients thoroughly.

6
Top the Bread
Spoon the tomato topping generously onto each slice of grilled bread.
7
Serve
Arrange the bruschetta on a serving platter and serve immediately while the bread is still warm.
