Roasted Pumpkin seeds

Seeing as the local greengrocer is selling huge pumpkin for $2 I've been loving pumpkins ;) Actually I always love pumpkins, esp baked .... yum .... we had a whole heap of seeds just sitting there, and we are always in the mood for a yummy snack ... so we decided to roast them.

So... here it is...

Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

pumpkin seeds, scooped from a fresh pumpkin
olive oil - enough to just coat them
salt to taste

Lay the seeds on a flat plate and leave until dry in a dry cool spot. We left them a couple of days. Coat them lightly in olive oil, sprinkle with salt, and bake at 140 degrees C for 15-20 minutes until they start popping.


Take out of oven, cool slightly, season more if necessary. I'm thinking you could alter this soooo easily by adding in whatever spices your heart desires...
