Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

This is the yuckiest chore ever!  I hate the slimy pumpkin insides...ewww.  My kids love the seeds though, and I really love my kids, so I do it.

After spending about an hour or so cleaning all the goop off of the seeds I throw them onto a deep roasting pan and into the 250 degree oven with a bunch of salt sprinkled on top.  I set a timer for 30 minutes and check on the seeds, stirring and salting again a little more each time.  It usually takes about 2 hours or so to roast them until they are just barely about to turn golden brown.  I like them hot, right out of the oven!
