Duck Fat and Rosemary Roasted Pumpkin Seeds (Edit recipe)

Growing up as a baseball player, I always had either pumpkin or sunflower seeds to snack on. I decided a while ago, during the height of pumpkin popularity to be exact, that I would give saving the seeds for later use a shot. While a little more time consuming than I initially thought, it really is worth saving the seeds. And it’s not like I was wasting any time cleaning the seeds. I literally cleaned them while the pumpkin was roasting for soup. All I needed to do from there was dry off the seeds and season them up with some duck fat, salt and herbs and BOOM. I had the makings of a very tasty yet different paleo snack. A bonus about this recipe is that it works for seeds of all squashes, not just pumpkin. I’ve made it with both acorn and butternut squash seeds and they came out great as well.
