Roasted Ranch Pumpkin Seeds

As I mentioned in yesterday's post, after pumpkin carving on Friday night I was left with the seeds of five pumpkins.  As a kid we always had roasted pumpkin seeds so I was really excited about giving them a shot myself. I looked up several recipes and combined a few to get the flavors that I was wanting. I brought them to our tailgate the next day and they were a big hit. I'm always looking for tailgate foods that can stay out all day without spoiling, and this one fit the bill! 

Roasted Ranch Pumpkin Seeds:

4 cups pumpkin seeds (washed)
1 packet Hidden Valley Ranch Seasoning
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. dill
1 tsp. lemon pepper seasoning
1 tsp. seasoned salt  (optional)
2 Tbsp. olive oil

Preheat oven to 375. Stir pumpkin seeds, oil, and seasonings until seeds are evenly coated.  Roast seeds for 30 minutes on a greased baking sheet, stirring every 10 minutes until golden.
