1tbspBalsamic Vinegar

Baguette or Italian Bread*sliced
Instructions
In a bowl, add the diced tomatoes, chopped basil, minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, and olive oil.
Mix well. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning according to your preference. Allow the bruschetta topping to marinate for at least 15-20 minutes to let the flavours meld.
While the topping is marinating, preheat your oven to broil. Slice the baguette or Italian bread into 1/2-inch thick slices. Place the bread slices on a baking sheet and toast under the broiler for 1-2 minutes on each side, or until they become golden brown. Once toasted, remove the bread from the oven and let it cool slightly.
Spoon the tomato mixture onto each slice of toasted bread.
Top with extra chopped basil and balsamic glaze/drizzle, if desired. Serve immediately.
