Casey Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 I am in the middle of cooking a spaghetti squash, and I usually roast and eat the seeds as well with the hull and everything. Is that allowed on the Whole30? I know "pumpkin seeds" are allowed, so I imagine squash seeds are the same -- I'm mainly wondering about the hull on the seeds, which is removed in most purchased pumpkin/squash seeds. Would that be considered a possible irritant that should be avoided, or is it okay to eat the shells? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melissa Urban Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Yep - you can eat these hull and all, or crack the hull and eat just the seed after toasting. I haven't seen any reference to inflammatory issues with squash seeds. Melissa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaime maya Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Can we have the seeds if we are doing the autoimmune version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
