GRILLED TOMATO BRUSCHETTA

 

16 slices (1/2-inch thick) French bread baguette
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
4 ripe tomatoes, seeded & chopped
1/2 small sweet onion, thinly sliced
1/2 cup torn fresh basil
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper

Preheat grill to 350 to 400 degrees (medium-high heat).

Brush both sides of the bread slices with the olive oil.  Grill a minute or so on each side until toasted.

In a mixing bowl toss together the tomatoes, onion, basil, garlic, salt, and pepper; serve over the bread slices.
