Welcome to November!
We had a lot more kids than usual last night, between 15 and 20 little ones! It was fun. I might add it was a very cold, dark and damp night. Daughter L and son K went to separate Halloween parties with their friends. L went out as Velma the Scooby Doo character, her boyfriend was Fred, and her friends all dressed up. K was Mario, the video game character.
I bought these roasted unsalted pepitas (shelled pumpkin seeds) at the grocery store. Call me lazy, I didn't want to clean and roast my own pumpkin seeds. They are nutritious, packed with protein and unsaturated fat. It's similar to eating nuts and also pack a lot of calories. For the 1/3 cup of seeds pictured here, that would be 310 calories. Oh they are crunchy and delicious!

We had only one group about 12 kids they were really cute and came with some moms!
Cute!
great costumes they wore, pumpkin seeds are so healthy for us and I always think its a bonus that they are delicious!!!!
ReplyDeleteThose seeds look so good. I don't think I have ever had any.
ReplyDeleteGood you had fun Halloween night.
I've never tried them
ReplyDeleteMy husband is a huge fan of pumpkin seeds. We haven't had them for awhile.
ReplyDeleteYour seeds look very tasty. I've never had luck roasting the ones from our jack-o-lantern pumpkins.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you had a very good turnout! We had less than last year, the weather was a little cooler. What fun costumes! I love pepitas too, but I like mine salted...
ReplyDeleteOnce I gut my four pumpkins, I might toss some of the shelled seeds in bread. Yum.
