Roasted Pumpkin Seed

Every year, our family loves roasted pumpkin seeds in the oven.  Salt is a favorite, but you can add other spices (Italian herbs and Parmesan cheese, cinnamon and other sweet spices, etc). This is just basic information on how long to roast them. Pumpkin seeds Salt Olive oil First you must get pumpkins seeds out of the pumpkin.  I have not seen any easy or graceful way to do this.   Toss pumpkin seeds with olive oil and salt to taste.  Bake on a cookie sheet at 350 for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
