Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium Roma tomatoes
- 1 cup Fresh basil leaves
- 2 large Garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic glaze
- 0.5 cup Red onion
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 loaf Baguette
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Start by dicing the Roma tomatoes into small, even-sized pieces to create a chunky yet scoopable consistency.
Finely chop the fresh basil leaves and mince the garlic cloves.
Dice the red onion into small pieces and mix it in with the tomatoes, basil, and garlic in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Drizzle the olive oil and balsamic glaze over the mixture and toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly. Sprinkle in the salt and black pepper and mix again.
Cover the mixture and let it sit for 10 minutes at room temperature to allow the flavors to meld together.
While the dip is marinating, slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Lightly brush each slice with olive oil and toast in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for 8-10 minutes, or until golden and crisp.
Transfer the tomato mixture to a serving bowl. Grate a touch of Parmesan cheese on top for additional flavor.
Serve the Tuscan Bruschetta Dip with the toasted baguette slices on the side for dipping or spooning.
