National Hummus Day + a Giveaway (contest closed)!

One of the benefits of being part of Sabra’s 2014 Tastemakers Panel* is that I get the jump on all the hot hummus news. What kind of hummus news you ask? Well, did you know that Thursday, May 15^th is National Hummus Day? What a perfect excuse to indulge in one of my favorite foods!

To celebrate the big day, Sabra is giving away a ton of awesome prizes (including one right here), and it’s super easy to enter to win! One lucky Emily Bites reader will win 5 coupons for free hummus and a $50 Visa gift card from Sabra! You can use it to throw your own hummus party – yum. To enter, just leave a comment on this post and tell me your favorite flavor of Sabra hummus! Mine has always been the Roasted Pine Nut, but I just tried the new Olive Tapenade flavor and it may be a tie!

Looking for a new favorite way to eat hummus? I can’t decide what mine is, actually. I love it as a dip with carrots, pretzels or broccoli, but I also love it as an ingredient. Here are a few non-traditional ways to eat hummus, for those who love it as much as I do:

Mediterranean Chicken Wraps:

Mediterranean Pasta in Creamy Feta Sauce:

Mediterranean Wonton “Cupcakes”:
