Here's another in the collection of Halloween cookbooks. Halloween Treats: Recipes and Crafts for the Whole Family by Donata Maggipinto offers up the usual food, fun and frights. I have already told you what a wuss-I-was for Halloween. Frankly, I am not much better now. But I just might come out from behind the chair to grab up a handful of these treats. Again, not a drop of sugar.
Roasted Pumpkin Seeds
2 cups pumpkin seeds (from about a 4-pound pumpkin)Do not give them to children. They will simply spit them back at you or worse...
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon dried rosemary
1 tablespoon dried basil
Rinse seeds well in cold water, being sure you have rinsed away any fibrous strings, and pat thoroughly dry.
Transfer to a large bowl and add oil, salt, rosemary and basil, stirring well to coat seeds with oil.
Spread seeds on baking sheet in single layer.
Bake in preheated 350-degree oven until crisp and golden, 12 to 15 minutes.
