Tips:
- Use ripe and flavorful tomatoes for the best flavor.
- Choose a good quality balsamic vinegar. A cheap vinegar will have a harsh taste that will overpower the other ingredients.
- If you don't have any balsamic vinegar, you can use a mixture of red wine vinegar and honey.
- Be sure to marinate the tomatoes for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours.
- Use a variety of herbs and spices to flavor the marinade. Some good options include basil, oregano, rosemary, thyme, garlic, and pepper.
- If you're using a thick slice of bread, toast it before assembling the sandwich.
- Add a layer of fresh mozzarella or goat cheese to the sandwich for extra flavor and creaminess.
- Serve the sandwiches immediately or wrap them in plastic wrap and store them in the refrigerator for later.

Balsamic marinated tomato sandwiches are a delicious and easy summer meal. They're perfect for a quick lunch or dinner, and they're also great for packing in lunches. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a sandwich that's sure to please everyone at the table.
