Spiced Pickled Beets

Sweet and spicy; and the juice makes an excellent marinade for pickled eggs. This recipe is great with freshly cooked beets instead of canned.

Ha Ha Ha. I was reading your recipe ingredients and I thought hmmmmmm that sounds like how I make my pickled eggs and beets. I was going to tell you that and then read the rest of your recipe. I should have know that you wold know that! The only thing different is that I never thought of adding a bay leaf. Sounds good to me.
