3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for sprinkling
1 tsp balsamic vinegar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
13 oz of mozzarella cheese, cubed
20 ripe cherry tomatoes, halved
1 Handful torn fresh basil leaves, plus extra for serving

Whisk together three tbsp of the olive oil and the balsamic vinegar in a bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in the cheese, tomatoes and basil leaves. Set aside. Grill the bread on both sides until lightly browned and crisp. Rub one side of each slice of bread with the garlic, then sprinkle with olive oil.

Serve immediately.
