Recipe Introduction
This is a " must " at our house during the holidays. Adjust any amounts or use your own favorite filling for the deviled eggs. Kids get wide eyed seeing the marbled eggs and as do the adults. I make a separate food colored egg tray for the kids, they just don't care for any spices added. Cook time is the marbling / favouring time.

Gently crack egg shells, do not remove shells.
I use large clean mayonnaise jars to colour the eggs, turning occasionally.
Submerge 6 eggs in beet juice, adding a few dashes of red food colouring.
Submerge 6 eggs in jalapeno juice, adding a few dashes of green food colouring
Refrigerate 1- 2 days, marbling and flavour will intensify the longer left in juices and by adding more food colourings If using food colouring's only.
Place cracked eggs in jars large enough to submerge, checking on intensity of colours
Remove eggs from juices, drain well and peel.
Split in halves, removing yolks.
Combine yolks, filling ingredients and any options, adjust to your taste.
Refill halves with mixture.
Sprinkle with any choice of toppings.
Refrigerate till ready to serve.
