Every year, my grandma makes pickled beets and eggs for Easter. I wasn't able to go home for Easter this year, since UB doesn't get any time off (we get all Jewish holidays off) for Easter, and I had a test the Friday before. I've been craving pickled beets ever since. My dad picked up a few cans of beets while I was home - we're the only ones in our house that enjoy pickled beets - but we didn't have a chance to make any before I moved back up to Buffalo. As soon as I remembered that we didn't make them, I went and got some beets of my own and decided to make some when I had some free time while Alex was at work.
I'm so glad I finally made these; I always forget how much I enjoy beets! I love the deep magenta color. To ensure they weren't too sweet, I only included a packet of truvia when I made them, but I've been sprinkling them with sugar every time I eat some - I think it gives it the perfect sweetness without it being overpowering, because I love the tang from the vinegar.
