Spicy Pumpkin Seeds

Peace Fam!!


Pumpkin seeds (raw, not the insanely salty David's pre-roasted kind) are full of essential vitamins such as B, C, D, E, and K.

When eaten raw, they can help remove intestinal parasites, prevent kidney stones and are good 'brain food'.

So here's a quick snack idea and also a nice crunch to add on top of your salads, although eating them raw is more beneficial since heating the pumpkin seeds destroy their natural fatty acids. B.U.T. once in a while eating them roasted won't hurt. *smile*


Spicy Pumpkin Seeds

• 2 c. raw pumpkin seeds (they will be a greenish tint)
• 1 tablespoon of soy sauce
• 1/4 teaspoon Cayenne
• 1/4 teaspoon Cumin

Roast pumpkin seeds in a dry, heated skillet until they puff up and brown slightly. Remove skillet from the heat. Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl, add the roasted pumpkin seeds and stir to coat evenly. Pour seasoned seeds back into still-hot skillet and allow to dry, stirring occasionally, for 3-4 minutes. Store in an air-tight container.

Enjoy and Peace to the NGE!
