Ingredients

Preparation

  1. Chop the tomatoes and place them into a sieve, over a bowl, to drain the excess juices. Set aside for about 5 minutes.
  2. Finely mince 2 cloves of garlic and place in a small bowl. Set aside.
  3. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  4. Slice the baguette diagonally in ½ inch slices.
  5. On a parchment paper lined baking sheet, arrange the bread slices.
  6. Lightly drizzle each piece with olive oil, on both sides.
  7. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes, flipping the bread half-way through. For the last minute, broil until golden brown.
  8. Once the slices are toasted, lightly rub each slice with a garlic clove, on one side only.
  9. Add the tomatoes to the minced garlic.
  10. Add 3 tbsp of olive oil, oregano and basil. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Combine well. Let marinate for 5-10 minutes.
  11. Top the slices of toasted bread with tomato mixture and serve. Buon appetito!
