1
Mix Tomato Topping
In a medium bowl, combine diced fresh tomatoes, chopped basil leaves, minced garlic, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Toss gently to combine all ingredients. Set aside to let the flavors meld.

2
Prepare the Baguette
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium heat. Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick slices.
3
Grill the Bread
Place the sliced baguette on the grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and has grill marks.

4
Top the Grilled Bread
Remove the grilled bread from the heat and let it cool slightly. Spoon a generous amount of the tomato topping onto each slice of grilled bread.
