My husband accidentally threw this recipe out, but I found it again because of your catchy blog name, I’ve made this recipe for pumpkin seeds for years! Also works well for spaghetti squash seeds.
Y’all need to try this recipe without rinsing or boiling seeds! Just roast and stir for an hour. They have more flavor with gunk attached!
Interesting. I’ll try that.
This is the best pumpkin seed recipe! I pinned it to “my favorite recipes” a few years ago and have made it every Halloween since. The whole family loves them. So easy and delicious! Thanks for your fantastic recipes!
I’ll have to tell my husband. Haha.
I just love everything you make! I Love reading your post too🤗. Your beautiful Bright and Fun!!!!!
Thank you!
I was wondering how you did that! I was thinking you threw it up then took it as it was floating in the air :). Such a cool pic!
Thanks Christy–they turned out great! Love the flavor from the butter–yummm.
