Roasting Pumpkin Seeds

I enjoy everything pumpkin, especially this time of year. I especially enjoy making pumpkin seeds. I love how my house takes on the aroma of the roasting seeds. Plus, pumpkin seeds are packed with great nutrition. Just a handful will provide a good amount of good fat, protein, fiber, vitamins and minerals. I would like to share with you a few of my favorite recipes. I first wash the pulp off the seeds then dry on a cloth towel. Coat with olive oil and seasonings. Bake on a parchment lined baking sheet at 300 degrees 30 - 40 minutes until just turning brown, tossing half way through.

1 cup raw pumpkin seeds

1 tsp olive oil
