1
Prepare the Tomatoes
Dice the tomatoes into small pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
2
Add Flavorings
Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the bowl with the diced tomatoes. Tear the basil leaves into smaller pieces and add to the mixture.
3
Season the Mixture
Add the balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper to the tomato mixture. Stir well to combine all ingredients. Let it sit for 15 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

4
Slice the Baguette
Cut the baguette into 1/2 inch thick slices.
5
Brush with Olive Oil
Brush both sides of the baguette slices with olive oil.
6
Grill the Bread
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Place the baguette slices on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown and crispy.

7
Top the Bread
Once the bread is grilled, remove it from the heat and allow to cool slightly. Spoon the tomato mixture generously onto each slice of bread.
8
Serve Immediately
Serve the bruschetta immediately while the bread is still warm. Enjoy!
