Smart tailgating? Why not? Let’s man up and make this year’s football season more nutritious! Here’s an idea: It starts with hummus. #Twospoons full of hummus a day will fulfill your bean recommendation for the week and Sabra hummus is the perfect option for your tailgating menu. It pairs well with finger foods like pizza, flatbread, bruschetta, wraps, and deviled eggs. It’s also a stand alone dip for all your veggies (my favorite way to enjoy Sabra hummus). So I’m expanding on this easy-to-make snack. I grilled barbecue shrimp and served them (along with celery and carrot sticks) with Sabra Roasted Red Pepper Hummus. Talk about a healthy, but oh so delicious appetizer (btw, I could make a meal out of this one!)
There are so many delicious varieties of Sabra hummus, you may also want to dip grilled barbecued shrimp into Sabra Rosemary with Seasalt Hummus or Sabra Roasted Garlic Hummus. Be sure to visit the links at the bottom of this post for more ways to use Sabra Hummus in your game day grub!
