On-the-go Flavorful Fall Snack: Roasted Winter Squash Seeds

09/22/11

Earlier this week I used Kobucha squash to make a Fall Veggie Bake.

As I scooped out the seeds, I was reminded of the roasted pumpkin seeds my mom used to make when we carved pumpkins for Halloween. I didn’t want to waste the seeds so I set them aside and turned them into a healthy snack.

Just one cup of these seeds provides up to 12 grams of protein, satisfies hunger and is a great source of Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids which protect heart health and brain development as well as reduce inflammation. Best of all they are easy to throw in a bag or container and carry with you for a snack on the go.

Crunchy Roasted Winter Squash Seeds 


What you’ll need:

The seeds of one Winter Squash of your choice (Butternut, Pumpkin, Kobucha, Delicata)
1 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tsp cumin
sea salt to taste

What to do: Cut the squash open, scoop out the seeds and set aside. Rinse with cold water and remove any leftover strings of squash. Spread onto a foil or parchment paper-lined baking sheet and let dry for several hours.

Preheat the oven to 275. Add the seeds to a bowl with the olive oil, sea salt and cumin and mix together, making sure the seeds are completely coated. Spread back onto a baking sheet and bake for 30-45 minutes. I baked mine a bit longer because I like them extra crunchy.

Cool and snack away!

As a full-time working mom with no nanny or family As a full-time working mom with no nanny or family nearby, my mom crew saved me this week. 

It was the first week of Summer break, our usual sitter is away all Summer and most camps haven't started yet. I needed childcare while I worked. 

My mom friends came through. They hosted playdates, shared their nannies and sent me information about classes their kids were doing so I could piece together an active and engaging week for Valentina before her camp starts next week. 

Next year I will hopefully plan better but this week reminded me of how grateful I am to have these friends. 💚💋💕
