oh you are great.I bought just yesterday..

I do that every year and love it. What recipes do you guys use?

Yeah I can't wait. First time doing it too.

i can't wait either. just bought first pumpkin of the season.

You know, this is something I never do, but I should start this year and add to the rest of my traditions.

I haven't done this in such a long time and I love them. I am definitely doing it this year.

Great idea to post some recipes. How does everyone roast and/or season them?

I have a a rather involved method of roasting the pumpkin seeds where I clean them and then soak them in salt water over night -- normally doing all this while the kids are carving them. Then following day I set them out to dry on a couple sheets of paper-towel. When dry I'll toss the seeds in mixture of melted butter and Old Bay (or any crab) seasoning.

Spread them out evenly on a pan and back them at about 150f for 45 minutes while shaking them around every 10 or 15 so they cook evenly.

I love pumpkin seeds...delish. I like them salty and crispy. And watch the original "Halloween" whilst I nosh on them!
