Bruschetta Classico

• 1 loaf crusty Italian bread, sliced into 1/2 inch slices
• 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 5 plum tomatoes, cored, seeded and diced in 1/2 pieces
• 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 6 fresh basil leaves, diced
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

1. Position rack in center of the oven and preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
2. Arrange the bread slices on a large baking sheet. Brush with 2 tablespoons of the oil. Bake just until the bread starts to toast, 4-5 minutes. Let cool.
3. Mix the tomatos, remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and all other ingredients in a bowl, be careful so as not to crush the tomatoes. Let stand at room temperature for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to blend.
4. Serve the tomato mixture on the bread slices.
