4 Garlic cloves finely minced
2 Tablespoons minced shallots
1/2 Cup fresh basil leaves
2 Tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Cut the fresh garden tomatoes into 1/4 inch dices & place in a bowl. Toss with the minced garlic & shallots.
Chop the fresh basil coarsely & add to the tomatoes.
Add the balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, and olive oil.
Toast the crusty bread & cut in half. Spoon the tomato mixture over the bread & serve immediately!
