Happy Halloween!!And if you still haven't carved your pumpkin, make sure to roast the pumpkin seeds. Take the seeds out and clean them in a colander. Get all the slimy bits off. Then dry them and toss them with a teaspoon of coconut oil. Sprinkle with sea salt. Spread the seeds out on a baking pan and roast in a 400 degree oven. When you start to smell toasty nuts run like hell to your oven and take them out--you only have a minute. Or you can just keep your eyes on them. I, maybe possibly, forgot about them until we were half done eating dinner. But fortunately my husband is athletic, so they were taken out in time. Let them cool and enjoy. Way better than what you'd get in the store!!
Enjoy!
Actually, we didn't get the pumpkin goo off well and it added a lot to the taste of the seeds. From now on we're cooking it along with the seeds!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea! I put DH on the task and wouldn't you know he scrubbed those puppies clean!
