Happy November my lovelies! I’m so excited to share this quick and simple pumpkin seed recipe with you all. This year we got to celebrate Halloween in a new home with new neighbors. We got to carve a HUGE pumpkin and pass out candies. The Little Man had a great time playing dress up and collecting a lot of candies.
Easy Pumpkin Seed Recipe
We seriously have enough candy to open our own candy shop!
This year’s pumpkin carving was done on Periscope (be sure to follow me @ladymarielle for more fun family scopes). It was so much fun!
Here’s our pumpkin!
Big thanks to the hubby and the Little Man for their hard work.
What do you get when you carve a big pumpkin? Pumpkin seeds, lots of it! So today I want to share a quick and simple way to enjoy those delicious seeds.
What you will need:
1. Pumpkin seeds (washed)
2. Olive oil
3. Salt
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Add the pumpkin seeds in a pot with some water and salt (to your taste). Boil for about 8-10 minutes on medium heat.
Remove from the water and drain. Use olive oil to grease a baking pan. Spread the pumpkin seeds evenly in a single layer. Bake for 10 minutes but keep an eye on them to be sure they do not burn. Remove from oven and let it cool down.
Enjoy the deliciousness!
Simple enough right? If you still have your pumpkin seeds, give this quick recipe a try and let me know how it turns out!
There are lots of fun recipes for baking pumpkin seeds, but I wanted to keep it quick and simple. Let me know how you enjoy your pumpkin seeds. I love hearing from you all!
Don’t forget to follow me on Instagram where I share lots of fun family pictures. Be sure to subscribe to my blog for more fun recipes.

I didn’t know it was so easy to roast pumpkin seeds. I can’t wait to do this.
I really need to do it soon too. There still seem to be plenty of pumpkins on sale!

I am not a huge pumpkin seed fan. My son on the other hand LOVES them! It is a great snack for him that I am good with him eating all the time.

I haven’t made roasted pumpkin seeds in a few years. I tried this year but because our oven is goofy (it’s an old 1950s Chambers stove), I burned them.
I’m glad you all had such a nice time! I forgot to cook up some pumpkin seeds this year and I’d still love to do it.

The best part of carving a pumpkin is roasting the seeds. They make a great snack and the kids love them.
Then nothing goes to waste! My husband is a big pumpkin seed fan, he loves adding some flavors too. Makes biting and picking more fun!
Roasting pumpkin seeds is one of my favorite Halloween activities. They I just wish there were more in the pumpkins because we go through them so fast!

My favorite part about carving pumpkins with my son is getting to cook the seeds afterwards. This sounds yummy! I’ll be trying it next year.

I love making roasted pumpkin seeds. We tend to do large lots every year as my cousin has a pumpkin patch. Every year they do a carving event with their children’s classmates. I get the buckets and buckets of seeds left behind.
I absolutely love pumpkin seeds! This is one of my favorite snacks for sure! I can’t wait to make some!

Both me & my husband love Pumpkin seeds, but usually my mom prepares it for us. The recipe looks easy & I would love to give it a try, being one of the best fall season recipe to enjoy.
Honestly, I usually just throw the pumpkin away but I bet my kids would love to try pumpkin seeds.
That is a cute Mario, and a cute pumpkin too. 🙂 We roasted seeds this year. I love ’em.
He’s such a cutie!! Growing up my favorite snack was slated pumpkin seeds, I will have to try this recipe, I can only imagine that homemade is the best!
I love pumpkin seeds as a nutritious snack. I have never made my own roasted pumpkin seeds, and it’s so easy to do.

I have heard of people eating pumpkin seeds but have never tried it myself. I wish I would have kept all the seeds when we were done carving pumpkins! I will have to pin this and make sure I try it next year!
