Roasted Winter Squash Seeds

Canned acorn squash tonight. Had a lot of seeds that looked too good to just throw away. So I looked up a way to roast them.

This is the before picture:

Directions:
Rinse them off
Put in a bowl and add 2 tbsp. olive oil and 1 tsp salt for every 1 cup of seeds.
Bake in 275 degree oven 40 minutes. Stir occasionally. If you dry them first then you can shorten the baking time to around 15 minutes. I just threw them in wet.

Or you can experiment with different spices to add a little pizzaz!

And this is the roasted after. Yummy and crunchy!

A very nutritious snack:)

Dehydrating Beet Leaves and Stems

OK so I hate waste. I admit it:)  Here's an experiment I thought I'd try. Dehydrating beet stems and leaves to use later as vitamin supplements in soups, stews, roasts, etc.  Anyone else tried this? I'd love to hear how it turned out and how you used them in your cooking.

I just cut them off the beet, rinsed them and laid them in my dehydrator.

I'll keep posted.
