Caution! Risk of addiction

Toast the baguette in the toaster. Dice the tomatoes and onions and season with salt and pepper. Rub the toasted baguette slices with the halved garlic clove. Then place the ham and Gorgonzola cheese (not too much, or it will run down the sides) on the baguette. Bake in the oven at 150°C for about 5 minutes, until the cheese has melted. Remove the slices from the oven and top with 2-3 teaspoons of tomato salad. Not too much, or it will all fall off when you bite into them.
