Directions
1. Place eggs in a pan of cold water; bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat for 7 minutes. Drain and cover with cold water until cool enough to handle. Peel and chill until ready to use. This will give you an egg with a slightly soft center. 
2. Combine tomatoes with garlic, oil, salt and pepper to taste, and vinegar. Tear basil leaves into pieces and stir in. Store, tightly covered, for up to 2 days.
3. Serve the eggs with the sauce, garnishing with whole basil leaves.
