You’ve carved the pumpkin and now you’re wondering how to roast the seeds…Well this quick and easy recipe makes it simple, so you’ll have the perfect Halloween snack.
Pumpkin Seeds: Harvest them straight from your jack-o-lantern! Olive Oil: Helps the seeds crisp up in the oven. Spices: Kosher salt, ground paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper create a savory spice blend that enhances the flavor of the seeds.
