Prepare strawberries:

Wash and chop strawberries. Place in a glass bowl (Pyrex works great).
Drizzle with about 1/2 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp dark balsamic vinegar, and a pinch of salt.
Mix well and marinate in refrigerator. If you are short on time leave it for 15 minutes - or overnight if you're making it ahead of time!

If you buy a fresh baguette early, slice into 1/4" slices and freeze for maximum freshness. Thaw 1 hour before use.

Preheat oven or toaster oven to 350 degrees F. Arrange slices on baking tray. Drizzle with olive oil and a pinch of salt. Toast for 5 min on each side and cool briefly.
