Simple Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

I am so happy to be in pumpkin season! I have posted about Pumpkin butter and ideas about what things I like to do with pumpkins, but the seeds are wonderful “by-product” of pumpkins. After removing them from the pumpkin, rinse them well & drain well before cooking. These remarkable seeds also offer great health benefits, here’s what Natural News says: “Pumpkin seeds were cherished by Native Americans for their healing properties.
