Just to clarify

I mentioned that I use raw pumpkin seeds in the trail mix below...these are not like raw seeds right out of a pumpkin. They are called raw pumpkin seeds and they are green in color. They are a bit more expensive than the regular cooked pumpkin seeds or sunflowers but if you mix them with the sunflower seeds, it's not that expensive.
And yes, seeds are NOT considered a nut. That was news to me too when Tanner was allergy tested.

Oh yes. I know exactly what you are talking about. I LOVE pumpkin seeds. I buy the raw AND the salted roasted ones. Shelled. The official name of them is Pepitas. Shelled would be "Hulled Pepitas". Just a little trivia I just learned on an on-line food storage course I am taking. : D
