  1. Oh my, this was lovely! Though I omitted the red pepper powder/flakes because I can't take the heat, next time I'd double the remaining spices. The flavor was great, I'd just prefer more of it. Perhaps add 1 clove or two of minced garlic as well, sauteing it in with the seeds. The variety of textures is wonderful. All in all a really nice, crunchy snack that I'll definitely make again. Thank you!

I live in Western KS and am a K-5 Librarian. I love to cook! Don't we all? I'm married to a VERY picky eater. For me, cooking is a great way to relax. I love baking the best. Christmas is my favorite time of year because I can make so many yummy goodies. I'd like to make goodies year-round but we definitely don't need it!
