Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) or set a broiler to medium-high heat.
Dice the Roma tomatoes into small, even pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
Chop the fresh basil leaves finely and add them to the tomatoes.
Mince the garlic clove and mix it into the tomato-basil mixture.
Drizzle 1 teaspoon of balsamic vinegar over the mixture. Add salt and black pepper, and stir to combine. Set aside to allow the flavors to meld.
Lightly spray the whole wheat baguette slices with olive oil spray on both sides.
Place the baguette slices on a baking sheet and toast in the oven or broiler for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden and crispy.
Remove the toasted baguette slices from the oven and allow them to cool slightly.
Spoon the tomato-basil mixture evenly onto each slice of toasted baguette.
Serve immediately while the bread is warm and the topping is fresh.
