Seasonal Tip
If you’re carving jack-o-lanterns in the fall, reuse every bit of your pumpkin by caving the inner seeds. Clean them well with water, and when they are dry toss them in a skillet with 1 tbsp of coconut oil and salt. Keep an eye on them as they will brown quickly but make sure they crisp up and enjoy for a great on-the-go snack.
