Picked Red Beet Eggs

I like these eggs for their pretty pinkish-purplish color. I think there’s a very slight flavor that the pickling adds, but really that’s it. You’re eating a beautiful hard boiled egg.

  • Place peeled hard boiled eggs in a larger jar, add the juice and some beets from jars of pickled beets.
  • Let the mixture sit in the fridge for about 3 days, then enjoy!

What can you do with them? Really anything that you’d do with a hard boiled egg. Eat them as a snack, add them to a salad, turn them into egg salad.

These are particularly fun for Easter. Imagine using them for deviled eggs!
