Before heading to work last Wednesday I wanted to capture quite possibly one of the most beautiful sunrises I've witnessed here in Western Maryland.

Recipe:
Pumpkin Seeds,
Two Ways
- One small roasting pumpkin, cut & seeded.
- 1 TBS sugar and 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp Old Bay, 1/4 tsp salt & pepper
Separate seeds into two bowls, in a small cup combine cinnamon and sugar; toss gently over one bowl of seeds with a dash of olive oil. Throw on a pan and pop in a 350 degree F oven.
Do the same with the other bowl using the Old Bay-Cumin mixture. Bake seeds for 10-15 minutes, shaking the pans (with an oven mitt on please!) every 5-6 minutes.
1/4 cup = 180 Calories, 6 g protein, 4 g fiber
Pumpkin seeds a.k.a pepitas, are high in protein, zinc, and fiber. They're vegan, tasty, and worth a little surgical work on a pumpkin.
