After all, Halloween is not far away and many of you will be having fun scooping out pumpkins to create jack-o’-lanterns to scare away evil spirits, even if you’re not knocking on people’s doors this year. Well, did you know those seeds you scoop out and generally throw away are actually pretty fantastic? Which is why we use them in EVERY tasty bag of seed mixes we make.
We love the delicious nutty taste of pumpkin seeds, they’re also just so easy to add to your diet. Simply munch a handful at any time, add them to smoothies, Greek style yogurt and fruit, or sprinkle them onto salads, soups or cereals. They’re also delicious added into baking, such as muffins, pancakes, flapjacks and flatbreads.
