   *One large pumpkin yields about 1 cup of seeds, but don't throw them out. Season them instead. Rinse 1 cup fresh pumpkin seeds; pat dry with paper towels. Toss seeds with 1 Tbsp. olive oil, 1 Tbsp. dried ground thyme, and 1 1/2 tsp. kosher salt; place in a single layer on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake at 350u00b0 for 20 to 25 minutes or until toasted. Serve on top of a salad, or just enjoy them as a yummy snack. Makes 1 cup. Prep: 10 min., Bake: 25 min.
