Ingredients
1 cup olive oil
¼ cup finally diced garlic
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
¼ cup of basil
2 lbs. finally diced tomatoes
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 large fresh baguette, sliced about ½-inch thick
Directions
Slowly heat olive oil and garlic just until sizzling and remove from heat. Place immediately in an ice bath. This will infuse the garlic flavor into the olive oil. Combine remaining ingredients and season to taste with salt and pepper to taste. Lightly toast the baguette slices. Place a spoonful of the mixture on each slice and drizzle lightly with balsamic.
