Why You’ll Love These

They're more than just pretty snacks—they're super tasty! Naturally gluten-free and good for keto fans, too. These bright eggs will jazz up any party, picnic, or holiday table.

Common Questions

→ Is this keto friendly?

Yep, each one's got under half a gram of carbs, so you're good if you eat keto.

→ How do I get a super smooth filling?

Let a food processor handle it so everything blends out totally silky.

→ Can I prep these ahead of time?

For sure, just cover and chill finished eggs for a day and eat them within three days.

→ How do I peel eggs easily?

Toss a teaspoon of baking soda in the hot water before dropping the eggs in. That helps them slip right out of the shell.

→ How long should the eggs soak?

Let them hang out in the juice for one day for the brightest pink. You can go as quick as 8 hours, but a full day gets the best color without getting too much beet flavor.
