    I'll have to try with the Splenda. My recipe calls for real sugar. Try adding thinly-sliced onions with the beets--very tasty. - 5/10/11

    I am from Pa also. I been making these forever and we don't use sweetener. They are even better if you grow your own red beets. - 11/12/08

    My family has been making these at Easter time for as long as I can remember, but we do not use any sweetener. I make them any time of year. I'm from Penna. so I guess we got it from the Amish. We love them. - 11/12/08

    Love it, never thought of using SPLENDA! It was great.
    I did add jalapenos to it as I love spicy! Thanks for this one. PS - I never eat the yolk which cuts down the Calories. - 5/31/08
