Yes, it has happened. Fall has come. How do I know? There are pumpkins outside the grocery store. The day I discovered this I had a free afternoon and ended up carving pumpkins with my cousins. Pumpkin carving is a great fall pastime, but don’t forget to roast the seeds for a fun fall snack.
How to
- Once you’ve finished with your carving and merrymaking, sort through the guts and collect all the seeds.
- Put the seeds in a bowl full of water. This helps separate them from the pumpkin guts. Then fish them out of water.
- Toss the seeds with olive oil, spread out on a baking sheet, and salt generously.
- Roast in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Give them more or less time depending on how light or dark golden brown you desire them.
- Let cool and enjoy a fantastic snack.
