Pickled Eggs I have a few nationalities running through my veins Two of which are very prevelant. My great grandmother was 100% Cherokee Indian. My moms moms mom..Now my mom’s dad’s family had a very uncommon German name for here in the U.S. Not to mention other great Grandparents also had German background….With that comes some GREAT and NOT-SO-GREAT family recipes. Some German food I love and some I find just plain yucky-namely rotting Cabbage (commonly known as Sauerkraut) I love my German heritage so much so I took three years of German at the public school attended So I am going to share my family recipe for Pickled Eggs and I want to tell you it’s not your common Pickled Egg recipe–NO SUGAR OR SWEET STUFF HERE! So lets get started
First you start off with those Brightly colored Easter eggs you just hate to destry- Go ahead Crack um you’ll make more next year! And if you save too long no one will want to go near them
Make sure you Take ALL the shells off and RINSE the eggs well..No one likes crunchy pickled eggs Then you’ll put them in a BIG jar. I used almost 2 dozen eggs. I saved two out for Lady Bug and Tornado to crack and eat
Then I add 2 cans of sliced Beets–This is VERY Important–don NOT add Dill pickle Juice! Also do NOT drain the Beet juice off That is what is going to turn your eggs into the pretty pink/purple color
Next you are going to add apple cider vinegar until the contents are almost covered…Don’t be afraid of adding too much-do not add water! At this point my mom would add salt HOWEVER we have found that you really don’t need it!
Nest if you are using a metal lid place a plastic ziploc bag over the jar top and screw on the lid… If you don’t the vinegar will rust your lid and you would be shocked at how quickly that will happen..Our family has one huge jar like this just for pickled eggs…They don’t late very long despite the amopunt we fix
And finally put them in the fridge overnight and the next morning you will have thes
e wonderful treats for breakfast!!

ver since I was very young this has been a huge part of Easter and I am so thrilled to be able to pass it on to my family! As you can see they are a huge hit–yhry even like the beets!
As you can see they love them…Right down to the last bit
