Preparation
Step 1
Toast the bread slices — either in a toaster, or by baking them in the oven at 400°F — until crispy and golden. (Toasting/baking time will totally depend on the type and thickness of your bread.)
Step 2
Take a clove of garlic and rub it cut-side-down all over the top of a slice of bread.
Step 3
Take a tomato half and rub it cut-side-down all over the top of the bread.
Step 4
Drizzle the bread evenly with a hint of olive oil. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
Step 5
Repeat with the remaining slices of bread. Then serve immediately while they’re nice and warm!
Step 6
