Halloween is now over, but if you are anything like our family, we still have a few pumpkins left over that we didn't have a chance to carve - there was no way I was going to let them go to waste. I love love love roasted pumpkin seeds! I got out the knife and went to work extracting those slimy little seeds. I could not wait to roast my seeds the following day. After 40 minutes, the aroma of roasted pumpkin seeds filled our home.
