That’s awesome Michelle, I can’t wait to hear what you think! Buy a baguette for the leftover tomato topping! Preheat oven to broil. Place a rack approximately 6 inches from broiler. Slice the baguette on the bias, into 3/4-inch slices. Place bread slices on a baking sheet and broil until golden brown on both sides (approximately 2 minutes for the first side and 1 to 1-1/2 minutes for the second side). Remove to a platter and rub each slice of bread with a head of garlic cut crosswise, then brush with extra virgin olive oil. Top with tomato topping. Serve immediately to prevent the bread from getting too soggy.
