MarketBasket: A new seasoned seed

Pumpkin seeds tend to require a lot of effort for convenience-store food. SuperSeedz, however, are a different story. These shelled, dry-roasted pumpkin seeds come in a range of flavors; the cinnamon-and-sugar version is perfect for sprinkling on yogurt or stirring into oatmeal.

Cinnamon & Sugar SuperSeedz, $4.99 at Whole Foods or at SuperSeedz.com.
