Fresh Roma Tomato, Basil & Oregano Bruschetta - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 clove garlic
    3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
    4 large ripe roma tomatoes, chopped
    1/2 cup red onion, finely diced
    12 -15 fresh basil leaves, coarsely chopped
    2 tablespoons fresh oregano leaves, finely chopped
    1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
    1/2 cup finely grated part-skim mozzarella cheese
    salt
    black pepper
    8 slices Italian bread, cut 3/4 inch thick (I use whole wheat)
Preparation
    Lightly toast the bread in the oven.
    Rub one side of the toast with garlic clove.
    Drizzle a little olive oil over each slice.
    Mix tomatoes, onion, oregano, basil, 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper.
    Spread mixture over each slice of toast.
    Sprinkle a little of the grated mozzarella cheese on each slice.
    Bake (not broil) in a 350 degree oven about 10 minutes, until the cheese just starts to melt, being careful not to burn the edges of the toast.
    Serve immediately.
