My kids love these pumpkin seeds and want them every fall. A little bit of pulp in the mix really adds to the flavor, so don't rinse the seeds. —Gwyn Reiber, Spokane, Washington

Yes, you eat the shells also. They are thin and provide fiber. I didn't know you could leave some of the pulp! I'm excited to make this soon!

Try using a tablespoon of bacon ranch dressing instead of butter....pretty good!

Mistydragon, the pumpkin seeds do not have shells...you eat the entire seed as it is when it comes out of the pumpkin. Great receipe!

@mistydragon, yes you can eat the shells. Just make sure the seeds are completely crunchy and they are easier to eat....love love love pumpkin seeds, can't wait to make this tonight! This can also be done with squash seeds.

Tasty! I lowered the butter by a tbsp and didn't put in the Worcestershire and they were awesome.
