Hippy Granola #2

I have other favorite Granola recipes and here's another one.

Pepita (from Mexican Spanish: pepita de calabaza, "little seed of squash") is a Spanish culinary term for the pumpkin seed, the edible seed of a pumpkin or other cultivar of Squash. The seeds are typically rather flat, oval, and light green in color and may have a white outer hull. Some cultivars are unhulled, and grown only for their seed. The seeds are nutrient- rich, with especially high content of protein and dietary fiber. The word can refer either to the hulled kernel or unhulled whole seed, and most commonly refers to the roasted end product.

Here's what you'll need:
350 degree oven.
