I received free samples of Sabra hummus mentioned in this post. By posting this recipe I am entering a recipe contest sponsored by Sabra and am eligible to win prizes associated with the contest. I was not compensated for my time.

Who else is a hummus super fan? I officially declare myself addicted to Sabra hummus because it’s a delicious plant-based protein, and the dozen-plus available flavors keep me from ever getting bored. Those who know me can confirm I’m all about protein and including more plant-based proteins is not only a goal of mine but something I recommend to all of my clients.

Hummus isn’t just only for dipping!

While I always have a tub or two of hummus in the fridge for dipping veggies, I frequently use it as a sandwich spread, a topping for baked chicken or fish or a base for salad dressing.

Sabra Hummus flavors

When I received samples of 5 different Sabra hummus flavors, it was a tough decision to choose which flavor to feature in a recipe. Then the idea hit me! Jalapeno Hummus Crusted Shrimp 🙂 Spicy foods are some of my favorites because:
– I love the flavor
– Spicy foods can boost metabolism (a little)
– They slow you down! Honestly, how quickly can you guzzle jalapenos?

I love simple recipes because as a working mom, I don’t have a ton of time to slave away in the kitchen. In this Jalapeno Hummus Crusted Shrimp, the Sabra Jalapeno Hummus makes a marinade and salad dressing in one easy, 3 ingredient combo. This entrée salad is also gluten free, dairy free and packed with veggies.
