Healthy and Delicious ~ Pumpkin Seeds

This might have helped if I put this up closer to Halloween, but what can I say; better late than never.

On Halloween, after I carved my pumpkin I came up with the most delicious way to prepare pumpkin seeds. Pumpkin seeds are a superfood. They contain high contents of protein and good fats, not to mention that they are very low in calories. I really enjoy leaving the seeds out in a pretty container with a spoon. That way I can easily have a quick snack and it is still not breaking my healthy lifestyle. 

PUMPKIN SEEDS 

Ingredients:
* Seeds from one pumpkin
* 2 tsp of butter (optional) 
* a pinch of salt 
* spices (rosemary, oregano,and thyme are good ones)

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. 




Bake your seeds for 45 minutes until golden. Make sure you stir them every 10 minutes, that way they won't burn.

Have a lovely Tuesday!
