HSRP neighbors peering with one another - Okay or not okay?

I have a pair of N7706's and lets say some random routed device connected to both via a VLAN tagged to a switchport. I want to run HSRP on the N7706's and have both peer to the router, but in the process the 7706's now peer to each other's HSRP address as well and shows as a routed path.

Is this okay?

In the past I've typically just passive'd the VLAN interfaces to prevent them from peering to one another, but now that I'm actually trying to peer something to the VLAN I can't do that.
