Roasted Squash Seeds : Spiced 3 Ways

November 18, 2014 · 5 Comments

Roasted Squash Seeds: Spiced 3 WaysIf you carved your jack-o-lanterns or cook squashes on a weekly basis, please please please don’t throw away those precious seeds! Cooler days call for comforting vegetables, including my favorites like acorn, butternut and spaghetti squash, which are loaded with plenty of seeds just waiting to be dressed in seasonings and roasted in the oven. Sweet or spicy, roasted pumpkin seeds are a quick healthy and satisfying crunchy snack that is high in protein, magnesium, copper, zinc, vitamin E, vitamin B-complex, and anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids. Now that is one super snack hiding inside our favorite winter squashes.  Roasted Squash Seeds: Spiced 3 WaysRoasted Squash Seeds: Spiced 3 WaysTo prepare your seeds, remove them from the squash and rinse to remove the stringy membrane. Spread out onto a paper towel lined baking sheet to dry, then place in an airtight container in the refrigerate until you have enough seeds to make a roasted batch. And don’t hesitate to adjust the seasonings and spices to your liking. These recipes are just a guideline for you, so be deliciously creative!

Roasted Squash Seeds: Spiced 3 Ways parRoasted Squash Seeds: Spiced 3 WayschmentThe soft sounds of seeds cracking open are the perfect soundtrack to the enticing aroma of spices and herbs that will fill your home. I wanted to create both sweet and savory variations to satisfy any craving, so of course the first batch was a classic Maple Pumpkin Spice. My favorite winter herb is rosemary, so I tossed one batch of seeds with it, along with some cayenne and surprisingly, for a sweet tooth like myself, was my go-to snack this past week. But my favorite roasted seed flavor came about while grabbing my pumpkin pie spice, and spotted a box of chai tea. My initial thought was how delicious these amazing spices would taste baked with honey! And sure enough it’s a winning combination-spicy, sweet, and everything that is comforting about winter flavors.

Roasted seeds add another textural and flavor element to this favorite appetizer board, and these seeds are a must for your Thanksgiving or holiday appetizer spread! Fill parchment lined mason jars with your roasted seeds and lovely spoon for a great appetizer at your next holiday gathering.

I love Lisboa in June🌿especially those early da I love Lisboa in June🌿especially those early days w. remnants of the previous month still lingering…
the fragrant & gorgeous Jacaranda trees lighting up cobblestone alleys lined w. pastel colored buildings, becoming more vibrant as Summer’s heat begins to near….
Walking along the Rio Tejo feeling so close to the sea but not quite there & the streets not yet crowded w. vacationers basking in the city’s delight … walking around Lisboa is certainly a creative treat!! I’d love to be able to squeeze in a little summer travel; change of scenery is always such an inspiration, especially when life seems a bit crazy these days. 

Any fun summer travels planned? Hope everyone enjoys the first weekend of summer🌼

how fleeting you have been sweet, darling June… how fleeting you have been
sweet, darling June…

it seems we’re all being kept too busy these days, I don’t want the simple treasures of this month to go by so quickly but it’s like I haven’t slowed down enough to catch my breath between events & to do’s — not since my birthday, these flowers & a cake I enjoyed making too much to photograph. They weren’t for my birthday, but for someone else’s, but it really was the joy of creating this arrangement however way the color yellow called to me, foraging for delicate peonies, garden roses & stems that would make these uniquely special🌿

Not the most picturesque photo of these beautiful florals (you can swipe for those), but I’m quite enamored w. this shot … perhaps it’s that gentle reminder to slow down & take note of the in-between…
