For Lime Chili Pepitas

  • Toast 1/4 cup of raw organic pumpkin seeds in a cast iron or stainless steel skillet until they start to making little popping sounds. Can’t eat chilis?
  • Turn off the heat and squeeze the juice of 1/4 lime, and sprinkle a wee bit of Himalayan or Maldon salt on them and dash a bit of chill powder on top. No worries – the lime salt version is still amazing or try some garlic powder!
