Similar to the popular Spanish tapa of paprika-flavored, roasted almonds, pasa tempos is a popular street food in Greece with vendors offering bags of hot roasted seeds, nuts and chestnuts to passersby.

¾ cup, roasted and salted pumpkin seeds
1 cup, roasted and salted sunflower seeds
¼ cup raw sesame seeds
2 tbs olive oil
2 tsp paprika
1 tsp dried sage
1 tsp dried oregano

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.  Line a baking sheet with foil. Toss all of the ingredients together and spread evenly onto the foil-lined sheet. Bake for 20-30 minutes, stirring frequently until the sesame seeds are browned and the seasoning has coated the seeds well.  Serve hot or at room temperature.

Serves 8
