Jalapeno Hummus
The Super Bowl is right around the corner, people. And whether you're cheering for the Pats or the Seahawks, the one thing we can all agree on is serving up good eats on game day. Like this jalapeño hummus from our friends at True Food Kitchen in Phoenix. They give standard hummus a spicy kick that will keep hungry fans happy regardless of what's happening on the field.
