Tangy Deviled Eggs

These tangy deviled eggs are an excellent holiday appetizer with a heart-healthy twist. A fiber-rich, cholesterol-free white bean puree–tangy with chopped pickles, parsley, and onion–takes the place of the egg yolks here, so you can enjoy these deviled treats with a light heart. You can use any type of pickle and its accompanying brine to flavor these snacks; we particularly like the homey, sweet-and-sour variety known as bread and butter pickles, but choose your own favorite.
