Roasted Unsalted Pepitas (No Shell Pumpkin Seeds)

Love the taste of pumpkin seeds, but hate having to deal with the shells? We totally understand! That's why we offer Roasted Unsalted Pepitas, a.k.a. no-shell pumpkin seeds in bulk. While we'd like to take the credit for shelling each and every seed, pepitas (which means "little seeds of squash" in Spanish) actually don't have a shell and are found in certain types of pumpkins. Their delicate flavor and crunch make them a tasty snack when eaten by the handful and are great recipe enhancers. Add them to salads, make your own trail mix, granola bars and other healthy treats. As with many other seeds, roasted shelled pumpkin seeds are loaded with a long list of good-for-you nutrients, vitamins and minerals, including magnesium, manganese, zinc, protein, plant-based omega-3 fats, LDL-cholesterol lowering phytosterol and more.
