Ingredients

The following ingredients have 12 Servings
  • 3 cups tomatoes (diced,  (I used a mix of roma and cherry tomatoes because that's what I had on hand))
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic (I just used the kind in the jar)
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 4 Tablespoons fresh basil leaves (finely chopped (or 2 teaspoons dried basil leaves, but fresh adds a lot more flavor))
  • 2 Tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 loaf baguette bread

Instruction

  • In a large bowl, mix together tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, Parmesan cheese, basil, and balsamic vinegar. Add salt and pepper as needed. Cover bowl, place in the fridge, and let the flavor meld together for 15-30 minutes (up to 3-4 hours - it tastes even better the longer it sits!).
  • Cut baguette bread into 1/2" - 3/4" slices. Top with a scoop of tomato mixture and serve.
