Pepitas


I was cooking some more pumpkin today to put in the freezer and decided to make some of this spicy little seeds that have been haunting my dreams. I have seen these all over the internet lately - and Cory always talks about spicy pumpkin seeds he would get in LA. All I know is, they are super duper addictive! All amounts below are approximate, I just kind of eye-balled it.

Pepitas (Spicy Roasted Pumpkin Seeds)
2 cups pumpkin seeds
2 tbs olive oil
2 tsp Cayenne Pepper
3 tsp Chili Powder with lime (or fresh lime, I didn't have any and I love this seasoning - the lime is strong)
Ground Sea Salt

Lay them all out on a cookie sheet and cook at 180 degrees Celsius (350 F) for 10 to 20 minutes, or until nice and crispy (just taste a few to know).

I wish my pumpkin had more seeds!!
