1
Prepare the Topping
Dice the fresh tomatoes and place them in a mixing bowl. Chop the fresh basil leaves and add them to the bowl. Mince the garlic cloves and add to the mixture.
2
Season the Mixture
Add the salt, black pepper, and balsamic vinegar to the tomato mixture. Gently stir to combine all ingredients. Let the mixture sit for about 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

3
Prepare the Bread
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Slice the baguette into 1/2 inch thick slices.
4
Grill the Bread
Brush both sides of the baguette slices with olive oil. Place them on the grill and toast for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crispy.
5
Assemble the Bruschetta
Once the bread is grilled, remove it from the heat and top each slice with the tomato and basil mixture. Serve immediately.
