Adjust racks to top and middle positions and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry produce.
Peel and mince garlic. Slice baguette crosswise into 8-10 rounds (16-20 rounds for 4 servings). Dice tomato into ½-inch pieces. Remove and discard any large stems from kale; chop into bite-size pieces.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine minced garlic, 2 TBSP butter (4 TBSP for 4), and a pinch of salt. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and microwave until butter has melted and garlic is fragrant, 30-60 seconds. Stir and set aside (you’ll use it in Step 5).
