Spicy Mediterranean Burgers with Spinach Artichoke Hummus Spread

 

 As part of the Foodbuzz Tastemaker Program, I received free Sabra Hummus!  Sabra has a variety of hummus to choose from.  For this recipe, I chose the Spinach Artichoke Hummus.  It was a great addition to our favorite summer meal - grilled burgers!
