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