I don't have a griddle, would the stove work as well?

Awesome! I've always been afraid to make brushetta because of the balsamic glaze. Although I didn't purchase the brand mentioned, I purchased a like kind. I also added fresh grated Parmesan cheese to the tomato/basil mixture. This is so easy and so, so good. Thank you

Great idea as well is to take a little garlic and toast till light brown and mix with tomatoes, or add fresh parm on the baguette when cooking. I have done both and they are heaven. 🙂
