Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 2 large tomatoes, diced
- 12 thin slices of baguette, preferably a larger baguette/loaf that's 3" wide (see note)
- 2 large cloves garlic
- olive oil
- fresh basil leaves, chiffonade (see note)
- sea salt
- freshly ground pepper
Instructions

Toast your baguette slices with a toaster or your oven. Drizzle olive oil over all of your baguette slices. Cut a sliver off of each clove of garlic, and use this newly created flat side of the clove to rub against the oiled bread. A little rub is all you need.

Pile some of the diced tomato onto each crostini. Grind a little pinch of sea salt over each, along with a little pinch of pepper. Garnish with a few strands of basil.
