Halloween is over, time to make use of all those pumpkins!

2 Cups unsalted roasted peanuts
2 tbsp fresh lime juice
2 tsp chili powder (ancho, guajillo, arbol, etc)
1 tsp salt
1 cup hulled pumpkin seeds

1. Toss peanuts with lime juice until all are moistened. Sprinkle with chili powder; toss until nuts are evenly coated. Spread nuts in shallow layer on baking sheet; bake at 250 degrees until chili powder forms a light crust on the nuts, 20-30 minutes. Remove from oven; sprinkle generously with salt.

2. In large skillet over medium heat, toast pumpkin seeds. When one pops, stir constantly until all have popped from flat to round, about 5 minutes. Toss with peanuts, then transfer to a serving bowl.

Makes 3 cups.
