1
Prepare the Tomatoes
Dice the fresh tomatoes into small pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
2
Add Flavorings
Chop the fresh basil leaves and add to the bowl with tomatoes. Mince the garlic clove and add it to the mixture. Stir well.
3
Season the Mixture
Add the extra virgin olive oil, salt, and black pepper to the tomato and basil mixture. Mix well to combine all ingredients evenly.

4
Slice the Baguette
Cut the baguette into 1/2 inch thick slices.
5
Grill the Bread
Preheat the grill or grill pan over medium heat. Place the slices of baguette on the grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and slightly crispy.

6
Top the Bread
Remove the grilled bread from the heat. Spoon the tomato and basil mixture generously over each slice of grilled bread.
7
Serve
Arrange the bruschetta on a serving platter and serve immediately, optionally drizzling with additional olive oil.
