Broccoli Cheeze Soup

I remember eating the pumpkin seeds after carving pumpkins every year as a kid. When my kids were little, I had tried making them a few times with no success.

INGREDIENTS:
DIRECTIONS:
Spread seeds, in a single layer, onto a baking sheet. (You could place line the sheet with parchment paper to make for easier clean up.) Sprinkle evenly with Himalayan salt or seasonings of your choice.
Bake on middle rack uncovered for 35 minutes or until seeds are dry. Stir after 20 minutes.
Allow seeds to cool completely before storing in a container or they will become soft. I usually let them air dry for 24 hours before storing them. (If they make it that long!)
