Combine 1 cup basil, blue cheese, lemon juice, garlic, and salt in a food processor, pulse until smooth. Adjust

seasoning if needed. Cook candied bacon until crisp. Allow to cool and cut into approx 2-inch pieces (should

have 24 pieces). 

Pre heat BBQ grill

Slice the baguette into 24 1-inch slices and brush with olive oil on both sides. Grill until the bread is golden

brown, turning once. Remove from the oven and rub one side with the peeled clove of garlic. Set aside. Season

tomato halves with salt and pepper. Spread each bread slice with some of the basil mayonnaise, top

with a slice of bacon and then a grape tomato half & avocado. Sprinkle with chopped basil. Drizzle with

balsamic glaze.
