Ingredients

  • 8 Roma tomatoes diced
  • 1/3 cup fresh basil chopped
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese grated, divided
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 8 slices French bread cut to 1-inch thickness

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, toss together tomatoes, basil, 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, garlic, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, kosher salt and pepper. Mix well. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • Just before serving, preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line bread slices on a baking sheet and spoon the tomato mixture over the tops. Sprinkle remaining parmesan cheese over the tops.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 3-5 minutes, or until bread is lightly golden around the edges and the tomato mixture is warmed through.
