Recipe information

  • Total Time

    2 hours and 20 minutes

Ingredients

2 medium red beets, scrubbed
1 garlic clove, finely grated
1/2 cup Parsley Mayo
1/3 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped
1/4 cup prunes, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Kosher salt
3/4 cup store-bought pickled beets, finely chopped
8 hard-boiled large eggs

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 375°. Wrap red beets in foil and roast directly on the rack until a knife slides easily through the center, 1 1/2 - 2 hours; let cool. Rub off skins with a paper towel; coarsely chop.

    Step 2

    Pulse chopped red beets, garlic, Parsley Mayo, walnuts, prunes, and lemon juice in a food processor until smooth; season with salt. Stir in pickled beets. Place in a disposable pastry bag or resealable plastic bag.

    Step 3

    Halve eggs lengthwise; remove yolks. Cut a 3/4" opening in tip of pastry bag. Pipe filling into eggs, mounding slightly. Top each with a golden beet slice.
