Refrigerator Pickled Beets

Used 2 cans of sliced beets. Used the juice from the cans instead of water. Used artificial sweetener. Can halve the marinade and still cover the beets.

Incredible taste, easy recipe

Tastes just like the canned beets but better!

Love these pickled beets, they are so good. I love fennel, so added fennel to 1 jar and absolutely loved it.

Very easy to make, and super zingy! Delicious is you're a pickle fiend like me but don't have the time for a full-on canning setup.

Instructions Bring the vinegar, water, sugar, salt, and mustard to a boil in a medium saucepan, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Simmer for a few minutes; take off the heat and allow to cool a bit. Add peppercorns and beets to a clean glass jar with a tight fitting lid. (This particular recipe fits nicely into a 1 liter sized jar.) Pour the brine in, covering all the beets. Cover and set aside for several hours (or up to 24), then transfer to the refrigerator.

I add about a teaspoon of pickling spice sometimes to change it up.
