Spiced-up pumpkin seed

Halloween is the time of year for fun and festive food and festivities. Spiced-up pumpkin seed is one of my favorite snacks during the fall season. It brings me back to my childhood and reminds me of when I used to carve pumpkins with my family and then cook the seeds. My mom always made the best pumpkin seeds.

Trying to follow suit, I make this tasty and flavorful version.

Did you know how many health benefits pumpkin seeds contain a number of health benefits. Including being full of antioxidants, may help reduce certain cancers, is high in magnesium and may help stabilize your sugar levels.

These seeds are the perfect snack option when you’re hungry and on the go. Keep them in your purse and snack on them when needed. You can also give them to your kids for a fast and healthy snack option.

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do!
