how to cook pumkin seeds in the oven
Answers:
after scooping them from the pumpkin, rinse them well, then spread them on a baking sheet in one layer. Sprinkle with salt and bake at 200 for 30-45 mins, stirring every 15 minutes or so. When they are starting to brown all over, they're done! NOTHING better in the stores than homemade pumpkin seeds!
as above, and here's a link to a yummy soup to use them in.

I love these but you are going to have to shell a whole lot of seeds LOL.......you can find them in some stores tho. I eat them til my lips feel like they are about to exploded, you just can't stop when you start and they are HOOOOTTT.
3/4 cup hulled pepitas (raw or roasted pumpkin seeds)
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons sugar
3/4 to 11/4 teaspoons chipotle powder (you can make it hotter if you like)
About 1/2 teaspoon salt
In a large bowl, mix pumpkin seeds, and oil. Add sugar, 3/4 teaspoon chilies, and 1/2 teaspoon salt; mix to coat nuts evenly. Add more chili and salt to taste.
Coat a 10- by 15-inch baking pan with cooking oil spray. Spread nuts in pan. Bake in a 325 degrees oven, stirring occasionally, until nuts are browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool. Serve or store airtight at room temperature up to 1 week.
