Carving your pumpkins and not sure what to do with all the innards? Well, save those seeds and roast them for a post-carving treat! The girls chose this years flavor versions, cinnamon sugar and salt and pepper. Except I couldn’t leave salt and pepper alone, so it’s pink sea salt with flower pepper.
Eating a lot of these can be overwhelming, but mix them in with some dried fruit and whole grain cereal for a fiber and vitamin rich snack mix.
Happy Halloween!!!!!
