 1 baguette or ciabatta

 4-5 ripe tomatoes

 3-4 sprigs of fresh basil

 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Slice the baguette or ciabatta into pieces about 1/2 to 1 inch thick.

Place the slices on a baking sheet and brush each with olive oil.

Next, place them in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes until the bread is golden and crispy.
