    • 1 tablespoon olive oil - for brushing
    • 2 tablespoon cilantro - fresh finely chopped
    • 3 tablespoon red onion - finely diced
    • 1 cloves garlic - minced

    • 1 teaspoon salt

    Instructions

    • In a large bowl, toss together the tomatoes, olive oil, cilantro, onion, garlic, jalapeño and salt until well mixed.
    • Squeeze the lime over the top, and gently toss again to coat.  Allow the tomatoes to sit while you prepare the bread.
    • Heat your broiler, and brush each slice of baguette with olive oil.  Broil about 2" away from broiler for about 1 minute, or until browned, then turn over and brown the other side.

    • Generously heap onto the toasted baguette pieces and garnish with a slice of avocado.
