Another feature of the seeds is that of all the pumpkin varieties in the world, this one contains among the highest concentrations of nutrients and essential fatty acids. Try using these big, flavorful seeds as salad toppers, in trail mix or make a delicious, non-traditional pesto!
Pumpkin seeds, also known as pepitas, are not only delicious but also packed with nutritional benefits.
