Ingredients
- 6 ripe plum tomatoes finely diced
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- ¼ cup fresh basil leaves chopped
- 3 tablespoons Red Onions finely diced
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
For the garlic bread
- 1 loaf French bread sliced into ½-inch thick slices
- Olive oil spray
- 2 garlic cloves
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine tomatoes, garlic, basil, red onions, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper; set aside to marinate.
- Place the sliced french bread on the prepared baking sheet and spray with olive oil cooking spray. Bake for about 5 minutes, watching closely to ensure they don’t burn. Immediately rub the garlic on the bread slices when they come out of the oven.
- Add the tomato mixture on top if serving immediately, or serve on the side.

Notes
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. They will last a few days in the fridge. It's best to keep the bread and tomatoes separate. Do not assemble until ready to serve/eat.
- Substitutes: For best results, follow the recipe as is. However this is a very versatile recipe, so feel free to change the type of tomatoes and bread.
