Halloween (part 2)

Normally I don't get super excited about Halloween, but this year-- with a house and front stoop on which to display a jack o' lantern-- I found myself getting a bit more in to the spirit than usual!

You got a sneak peek of our jack o' lantern this morning....here it is before, during and after Jason carved it up yesterday afternoon:





While Jason was doing that, I roasted up the pumpkin seeds. Now we have a tasty treat for the whole week!

Easy Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

Ingredients:
Fresh pumpkin seeds, washed and patted dry (about 2 cups)
2 1/2 TBL olive oil
Salt to taste

1. Preheat oven to 275. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Toss seeds, olive oil, and salt together in a medium sized bowl. Spread prepared seeds in a single layer onto the baking sheet.
3. Roast for 25 minutes or until starting to brown.
4. Enjoy!
