Pumpkin Seeds

Yesterday, we cut open our pumpkin, composted the 'guts' or 'pulp' and sorted the pumpkin seeds. Ms. Brown washed the seeds and dried them over night.

Today, we got to prepare our pumpkin seeds for roasting. First, we laid the seeds out on a pan. Then, we drizzled olive oil over them. Next, we shook salt. Lastly, we put the pumpkin seeds in the oven at 325 degrees for 13 minutes. After they cooled, we each got to try them (some for the first time ever!).

The children couldn't believe how tasty pumpkin seeds were! They are so simple to make and taste like 'popcorn'!

Enjoy!
