• Fresh Basil
• Balsamic Reduction
• Grana Padano

DIRECTIONS

• If you need to prepare the pesto, do so now. You can also sub store-bought to save time but I will say, my Macadamia Pesto is pretty delish :)
• Toss the tomatoes with the pepper flakes and EVOO. Season to taste with salt and set aside.​

​

• Preheat a grill pan on just about medium heat. Brush both sides of each slice of baguette with EVOO and slap them on the grill until crisp and golden brown on both sides. Once they're toasty, rub them down with the raw garlic.
• Spread pesto on each slice followed by spooning some of the bruschetta topping on top. Drizzle the slices with balsamic reduction, grate some grana padano, and nestle some fresh basil on to each slice. Serve & ENJOY!
