Spicy Hot Pumpkin Seeds Recipe

Everyone remembers making pumpkin seeds when they were little but does anyone remember them tasting good? It always seemed like more of a novelty than a tasty treat. So, we decided to spice things up this weekend after we carved our jack-o-lanterns, and created this recipe in an attempt to bake some pumpkin seeds that were actually delicious. A few spices later and what do you know? These pumpkin seeds tasted out wicked good! They ended up making a really yummy snack and even the kids liked them. Score!

Ingredients

1 1/2 tbsp butter, melted

2 tsp worcheshire sauce

1 tsp salt

1/4 tsp garlic powder

1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (or to taste)

2 cups pumpkin seeds, rinsed

2. Melt butter in a large bowl and add seeds, worcheshire sauce, salt, garlic powder and cayenne pepper. Toss to coat seeds.
