Combine tomatoes, red onion, garlic and basil in a medium bowl. Add 1/2 tablespoon
of oil, vinegar, salt and pepper and mix well. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for
one hour.
When ready to serve, preheat broiler and slice the baguette in 1-inch slices
on a 45 degree angle to make 5 to 7 slices of bread.
Combine remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil with the garlic salt. Brush entire surface
of both sides of each slice with olive oil mixture.
Broil slices for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side, until surface starts to brown.
Arrange bread like wheel spokes on serving plate. Spoon the chilled tomato in
neatly onto bread slices where they meet at the center of the plate.
