  • 2 tbs. olive oil

  • ½ teaspoon chili powder
  • ¼ teaspoon cumin
  • ¼ teaspoon ginger

  • Minced the garlic, then add oil, honey and spice blend ingredients in small bowl. Whisk well, then pour over pumpkin.
  • Toss the pumpkin until well coated, then dump onto parchment paper lined baking sheet or large flat baking dish (I used a non-stick Paella pan myself). Spread the pumpkin out.
