Pepitas are nice. Different flavour to pine nuts but equally snackable. Use in pesto, roast gently and sprinkle with salt & chilli powder for snax. Add to salads etc. Grind to a paste and mix with tahini/lemon/garlic for a different hommous. Truth to tell, I like them better than pine nuts - more options to tweak the flavours.

They're glorified bird seed. The only thing I use them in is muesli bars.
