- 10 leaves Fresh basil leaves
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt

Finely chop or press the garlic cloves and add them to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Dice the fresh mozzarella into small cubes and mix it with the tomatoes and garlic.
Chop the basil leaves into thin strips and add them to the mixture. Season with salt and black pepper, then gently toss to combine.
Spoon the tomato mixture onto the toasted baguette slices, dividing it evenly among them.
Drizzle each bruschetta with a small amount of balsamic glaze for added flavor.
