| Pumpkin seeds! 1 tsp or more EV olive oil
2 cloves garlic
1/2 lb pumpkin seeds, the green, peeled kind known as pepitas.
cayenne or other dried ground red pepper and salt, to taste
1 TBS lemon juice
saute garlic in olive oil, add red pepper, pumpkin seeds salt and roast until brown.
I use extra red pepper so it will slow my progress -- they are yummy and ADDICTIVE! Oh and they are a great dietary source of magnesium too.
