Stuffed eggs are an easy-to-prepare snack that looks great not only at an ordinary family dinner, but also at a gala event. Preparing this dish is quick and easy, and the result is wonderful. Just imagine … fragrant baked or boiled beets mixed with yolks, nuts, seeds and mayonnaise! These mouth-watering boats made from half eggs are very tasty, bright and beautiful. They are incredibly tempting and effective looking, and will also please any eater. In any case, beet lovers will definitely like this appetizer.
In addition, the beetroot flavor can be complemented with traditional products, with which it goes well. For example, garlic passed through a press will be appropriate here. Finely chopped prunes or chopped walnuts will work well. And those who love the salad "herring under a fur coat", then you can put a few small pieces of fillet of this slightly salted fish in the filling.
Well, one cannot fail to note the benefits of this dish. The beneficial properties of beets have a beneficial effect on constipation, increase intestinal motility and regulate metabolic processes. The lipotropic substance betaine, which is contained in the root vegetable, regulates fat metabolism.

Cooking stuffed eggs with beets and nuts:
1. First, boil or bake the beets. This process will take you at least 4-5 hours. Therefore, I recommend preparing the vegetable in advance, for example, in the evening. Cool the finished beets to room temperature, peel and grate on a medium grater. Which method of cooking beets is better (baking or boiling) is up to the hostess to decide. In the first option, wrap the washed root vegetable with food foil and send it to the oven, in the second, immerse it in a saucepan with cold water and put it on fire. In both cases, the vegetable will cook for about 2 hours. However, the specific cooking time depends on the size and age of the vegetable. Therefore, try the beets for readiness by piercing them with a toothpick. It should become soft.
In the beet mass, add peeled garlic clove, almonds and sunflower seeds passed through a press. Also add mayonnaise and a pinch of salt to taste.
2. Prepare the eggs by this time as well. Boil them until steep, about 10 minutes. Then cool them completely in ice water and clean them. Cut them in half and carefully remove the yolks, which are added to the beetroot filling.
3. Stir the beetroot mixture well until smooth and smooth. Fill the egg whites with it, lay out the filling in a slide. Garnish with fried sunflower seeds before serving.
