Pickled Beet Devilled Eggs – Instant Pot

Pickled Beet Devilled Eggs I am so thrilled about these devilled eggs! Pickled Beet Deviled Eggs, with the beets quick pickled in the Instant pot/Electric Pressure Cooker. What a fun way to use up the brine from pickling beets.

My Pickled Beet Eggs Story

All these pretty pink eggs pictures have been making me wistful, finally I took the plunge. Made these eggs. All pink and pretty! I am a happy camper; this was part of our brunch this morning.  I made a first batch, as a hostess gift and it backfired on two counts.

My daughter found my brine a tad on the sweeter side. The folks that I took this for, did not quite get the pickling thing. They assumed I had used some food color. Take two, this morning worked. The brine had the right balance, the home crew were happy with my efforts. All in all a worthwhile endeavor.

So, I made the pickled beets in the instant pot. Done quickly, in about 3 minutes of pressure cooking. As the brine cooled I cooked my eggs. I kept the actual filling for the eggs simple. A hint of mayo, a splash of lime juice and a little Djon mustard.

For a finish, I topped with minced cilantro, just because I have a lot of cilantro around the house. Minced chives will work just as well.  I poked my head out into the backyard, and I see that my chives are back!

More about Eggs in our Household

Eggs are such a versatile thing. I always have a lot around. In fact, they are one of the few things that we all like and are comfortable with. My daughter is fine with egg part of things in her vegetarian journey. Her journey has certainly taught me a lot about flexible ingredients.

Almost anything that I do make with chicken has a vegetarian variation in our house.  Adapting things are easier than one realizes.  So, here are my pickled beet devilled eggs, made quite simple in my opinion in the Instant pot/electric pressure cooker.
