ROSY PICKLED EGGS
This is my mom's famous recipe (at least with those who have tasted them) for pickled red beet eggs. They're a must at any picnic, and never go to waste. The longer they marinate, the better they look and taste, so try not to dip into them for at least 3 days. TIP: I like my eggs to be a nice dark pink, and to have plenty of extra beet slices, so I usually double up on the red beets and juice. You can also use small eggs instead of large if you're making them for a crowd. Time does not include cooking or marinating the eggs.
