Beet Pickled Deviled Eggs are a gorgeous twist on deviled eggs. Naturally dyed with beet and quick pickled for a little bite of acidity. It takes that ol’ deviled egg recipe to the next level.
Quick pickling takes less than two hours, but the longer you let the eggs pickle the more pink they’ll get. I like just a slight color so two hours is the perfect amount of time.
I truly love making these for any occasion because they’re so impressive looking, but Easter is when this is the star appetizer.
