Recipe: Spiced Pumpkin Seeds
If you're family is anything like mine, carving pumpkins is a non-negotiable. It is a rite of passage to choose the perfect pumpkin and get your hands dirty! I love carving pumpkins but more than anything, I love the fact that at the end of it we are able to make delicious pumpkin seeds.
I used to keep the recipe simple until I was introduced to this simple spiced pumpkin seed recipe and there is no going back.
