  2. 2. Arrange the baguette slices on the baking sheet and brush each one lightly with 1 tablespoon of the New Jersey Tomato Basil Infused Olive Oil Blend.
  3. 3. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until the bread is golden and crisp at the edges.
  4. 4. In a medium bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, basil, garlic, balsamic vinegar, salt, black pepper, and remaining olive oil blend.
  5. 5. Stir gently and let the mixture sit for 5 minutes so the flavors mingle.
  6. 6. Spoon the tomato mixture onto the toasted bread slices.
  7. 7. Add mozzarella or Parmesan if using, then serve right away while the bread is still crisp.

Notes

For the best texture, keep the tomato mixture and toasted bread separate until just before serving. If the tomatoes are especially juicy, drain off a little liquid before assembling. This recipe is built around New Jersey Tomato Basil Infused Olive Oil Blend for a bright, savory, tomato-forward finish.
