The plot

As you carve that pumpkin to place on your front porch this month, remember, you can have your pumpkin and eat it too. The seeds that is. The most difficult part of this easy snack is sticking your hand inside the pumpkin and pulling out the seeds.
Once you've achieved this, it's all down hill. Rinse the seeds to get rid of all the inside goop. Turn your oven to 325. Oil a cookie tray. Spread the seeds out on the tray. Salt the seeds. Place tray in oven in center rack.
