Recipes for Fall

Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

Save the seeds as you hollow out pumpkins for halloween jack-o-lanterns ... everyone loves to munch on this snack.

1. Wash the seeds and pat them dry.
2. Soak for about an hour in soy sauce or Worcestershire sauce.
3. Sprinkle w/ garlic powder if desired
4. Roast on cookie sheet at low heat, 225-250°. After 1/2 hour, turn the seeds over and continue roasting for another 1/2 - 1 hr. Test by biting into one - they're done when they're crunchy.

Some variations, soak in butter instead of the soy or wooster sauce. Sprinkle with a few Italian spices - oregano for instance. Experiment until you find a flavor you like!
