We carefully wash them, getting all the pumpkin "yuck" off and dry them for roasting.
Walking thru the grocery store the other day, I happened to notice a package of raw pumpkin seeds on the shelf.
Hm...let's see if it this works as well.
Preheat the oven to 350
Spray a pan with cooking spray
Spread seeds in a single layer
Cook until brown and crispy, stirring occasionally.
When cooked, sprinkle liberally with seasoned salt.
Enjoy, repeat!
I am happy to report that the store bought seeds were almost as good as fresh!
Funny story though, I am one of those annoying people who watch the scanner at the grocery store and hold up the line with any small discrepancy.
These pumpkin seeds were labeled $1.79 on the package. The sign in front of the display read $2.50. I put them at the end of the order in order to watch the price. Sure enough, they rang up at the $2.50 price. I ended up paying only the $1.79, they honored their sticker.
Next time I am at that store, it will be interesting to see if they change the sticker on all the packages.
Our favorite crunchy snack!
