1
Prepare the Tomato Mixture
In a mixing bowl, combine diced tomatoes, chopped fresh basil, minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

2
Slice the Baguette
Cut the baguette into 1/2 inch slices on a diagonal to create larger surface area for toppings.
3
Brush with Olive Oil
Brush one side of each slice of baguette with olive oil to ensure they grill well.

4
Grill the Bread
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Place the baguette slices oil-side down on the grill. Grill for about 2-3 minutes until the bread is golden brown and has grill marks. Flip and grill for another 1-2 minutes on the other side.

5
Top the Bread
Once the bread is grilled, remove it from the grill and place it on a serving platter. Spoon the tomato mixture generously on top of each slice.
6
Serve
Serve immediately while the bread is warm, garnished with extra basil if desired.
