Bread

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Topping

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, chopped basil leaves, diced mozzarella cheese, minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Toss gently to mix all ingredients evenly. Set aside to allow the flavors to meld.

Grilling

  1. 2

    Prepare the Bread

    Slice the baguette or Italian bread into 1/2-inch thick slices. Brush both sides of each slice with olive oil.

  2. 3

    Grill the Bread

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Place the oiled bread slices on the grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Assemble the Bruschetta

    Once the bread is grilled, remove from heat and place on a serving platter. Spoon the tomato mixture generously over each slice of grilled bread. Serve immediately to enjoy the fresh flavors.
