Ingredients

Servings
  • 1-1/2 cups tomato diced, fresh ripe
  • 1/4 cup basil juillened, fresh
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil divided
  • kosher salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • 12 lices baguette cut 1/4 inch thick
  • 12 lices mozzarella cheese fresh
  • sea salt for garnish, flakey

Instructions

  1. Preheat the broiler to high and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or foil. The parchment paper/foil makes for easy cleanup.
  2. In a large bowl, gently combine the tomatoes, basil, balsamic, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. 
  3. Brush each piece of baguette with the remaining olive oil and broil for 3 minutes, or until golden brown.
  4. Flip the baguette and brush the other side with olive oil. Add a piece of mozzarella to the top of each crostini and broil for another 3 minutes, or until the mozzarella is warm and melted. 
  5. Remove the crostini from the oven and top with marinated tomatoes and a sprinkle of flakey salt. Enjoy immediately.
