Bruschetta Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Topping

    In a large bowl, combine diced Roma tomatoes, chopped fresh basil, minced garlic, and finely chopped red onion. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic glaze. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Mix well and let it sit for about 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Baguette

    Slice the baguette into 1/2 inch thick slices. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the slices on a baking sheet and brush them lightly with olive oil.

  3. 3

    Toast the Baguette

    Toast the baguette slices in the preheated oven for about 5-7 minutes or until they are golden and crispy.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Bruschetta

    Remove the toasted baguette slices from the oven. Spoon the tomato mixture generously over each slice just before serving. Drizzle with additional balsamic glaze if desired.
