Roasted pumpkin seeds are an easy and deliciously crunchy byproduct of pumpkin carving. A fast, easy, and tasty fall treat!

Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

pumpkin seeds

Tbsp cooking oil*

tsp Tony Cachere's Cajun Seasoning*

Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Rinse the pumpkin seeds in a colander and remove any remaining pumpkin flesh that may be attached to the seeds. Place the washed pumpkin seeds in a lint-free dishcloth and pat dry (the seeds have a slippery coating and may not feel totally dry).

Place the washed and dried pumpkin seeds in a bowl and add the cooking oil and seasoning. Stir until the seeds are well coated. Pour the seasoned pumpkin seeds out onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and spread them into a single layer.

Roast the pumpkin seeds in the preheated oven, stirring every 5-10 minutes, until they are golden brown and have a nutty aroma. Total roasting time will vary depending on the size of the seeds and their moisture level. Allow the pumpkin seeds to cool, then enjoy!

Learn to make candied popcorn balls the old fashioned way. A vintage treat for Halloween, carnivals, festivals, or just because!

Popcorn Balls

popcorn kernels

choose

sugar

water

molasses or corn syrup

tsp vinegar

vanilla

salt

Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. You’ll want to use enough oil to just cover the bottom of the pan, so adjust the amount accordingly.

You can test your oil by tossing in a few kernels and covering the pot.  Once they pop, you’ll know your oil is hot enough to add in the rest.

Add the rest of the popcorn in an even layer across the bottom of your pot.

Remove the pot from the heat for 20 seconds to allow all of the kernels to come to the same temperature. Once 20 seconds have passed, return the pot to the heat and cover. Once the kernels are really popping, carefully move the pot back and forth across the burner.

When the popping slows down and there are long pauses between pops, remove the popcorn from the heat and immediately transfer to a large bowl. Set aside.

In a saucepot with a heavy bottom, boil sugar, water and molasses or corn syrup over medium heat, stirring occasionally.

Heat syrup until it reaches 260 degrees F. This can take anywhere from 10-30 minutes. The syrup will be extremely hot and sticky so be sure to cover your hand with an oven mitt when you take the temperature.

Add in vinegar, vanilla and salt. Stir just enough to mix well.

Immediately pour syrup over popcorn and turn with a rubber spatula to be sure it is all coated evenly.

Allow the popcorn mixture to cool for a few minutes, then spray your hands lightly with cooking spray and gently shape the popcorn into balls about the size of an apple.

Place on a sheet tray lined with wax paper or parchment and allow to cool until hardened.

Once cool, wrap balls in plastic wrap or place in plastic zipper bags to keep them fresh.

Note: we have reduced the amount of water from the original recipe printed in the vintage book to just 1/2 cup. This will cut the amount of time needed for the temperature to rise significantly, and should not effect the finished result.

Say goodbye to curds because this Garlic Herb Cottage Cheese Dip is whipped until smooth and creamy for a high protein vegetable and chip dip!

Garlic Herb Whipped Cottage Cheese Dip

tsp dried oregano (0.05)

basil (0.05)

garlic powder (0.03)

onion powder (0.03)

salt (0.02)

pepper

cottage cheese (0.53)

lemon juice (0.01)

Lemon Curd

An egg is the organic vessel containing the zygote in which an animal embryo develops until it can survive on its own, at which point the animal hatches. An egg results from fertilization of an ovum. Most arthropods, vertebrates, and mollusks lay eggs, although some do not, such as scorpions and most mammals. Reproductive structures...

Combine lemon juice, sugar, eggs and salt in a blender until thoroughly mixed.&nbsp;

Melt the butter on the stovetop or in the microwave. Set the blender to medium speed, open the pouring spout, and add the butter in a slow and steady stream until fully integrated into the lemon mixture.

Transfer the mixture to a saucepan and cook over medium low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens (about 5 minutes). Be sure that you are heating the mixture slowly and evenly, you don't want it to cook too quickly.

It should be thick enough that your spoon leaves a trail behind it when you run it through.

Remove from heat and transfer the curd to a bowl or container. Place a sheet of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the curd to stop a skin from forming on the top. Chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Flavor improves dramatically when chilled (the "egginess" that is present when first cooked dissipates as it chills). Keep covered in the refrigerator and consume within 4 weeks. Lemon curd also freezes well for up to a year in a tightly covered container.

This Salty Churro Toffee Snack Mix is crazy addictive and insanely delicious! In less than 30 minutes, you'll be snacking on sweet &amp; salty cinnamon covered perfection!

Salty Churro Toffee Snack Mix

Oyster Crackers

butter

brown sugar

Preheat the oven to 350°F/175°C. Line a baking sheet with foil. Set aside.

Pour the oyster crackers in a large bowl and set aside.

In a medium saucepan combine the butter and brown sugar. Stirring consistently bring the mixture to a boil and boil for 2 minutes. Remove the mixture from the heat and stir in 1 1/2 teaspoons of cinnamon and vanilla. Pour this immediately on top of the crackers. Use a rubber spatula, stir and coat the crackers evenly with the mixture. Spread the crackers evenly onto the prepared baking sheet.

Bake for 10 &#8211; 15 minutes until bubbly all over.

While the crackers are in the oven combine the granulated sugar, cinnamon and salt. Set this aside.

When the crackers are done remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle immediately with the salty cinnamon sugar mixture evenly.

Let the crackers cool and then break into pieces.

Serve immediately or store airtight for up to a week.

What I love about this recipe is that it just works. When it came out of the oven, with all the sauce and crackers stuck together, I assumed that I’d just be breaking it up into chunks. I was thrilled to discover that it easily broke up into individual crackers, once cooled. 

Next time you m gonna play with flavors a bit and maybe do more of a mix with the oyster crackers, then maybe some mini pretzels, pecans, etc. Also may add a little cayenne pepper for a little heat… love sweet, savory, hot in one bite.

This is a winner.

Make these ASAP! So incredible. Quick, easy and delicious!

It turned out really good but next time I'm going to add some red pepper to kick it up and counter the sugar.

These are ooey and gooey, offering all the flavor of pizza but at a fraction of the labor and time it takes to make a full pizza. Being bite-size not only makes these a great grab-and-go snack for kids but also a fun party appetizer or game day snack.

Pizza Bites Recipe

Pillsbury Crescent Rolls (8 oz)

avocado oil spray ((optional) to help prevent sticking)

pizza sauce (such as Rao's

mozzarella cheese

pepperoni (you can use turkey pepperoni

Preheat the oven to 400F (200C).

Unroll the Pillsbury dough, pull apart each piece and take each triangle and roll it into a ball. Flatten that dough ball and spray your muffin tin with some avocado spray, if using. If your muffin tin is brand new and non-stick you might not have to spray it at all.

I flatten each piece of dough into the muffin tin and make sure to press it down and along the sides so that it looks like a little cup.

Place 1 teaspoon of pizza sauce into each cup and top with a piece of mozzarella.

Add a slice of pepperoni on top and bake for 15 minutes or until the pizza bites are puffed up and golden. Enjoy!
