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.
