Something disastrous happened the other day. We eat a lot of pine nuts so whilst in aldi I thought I’d grab some more. I didn’t check. Just through them in like an amateur. Well, when I got home, I realised they were pepita seeds. Some turd put them in the pine nut box! Wtf am I gonna do with pepita seeds? I already have some in the cupboard. Luckily I have cashews to save the day.
My own fault for not checking that one time.

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.
