Preheat oven to 275 degrees.  Line a cookie tray with parchment paper. Mix all ingredients together and spread on a single layer on your parchment paper. Place tray on middle rack of oven for 35-40 minutes, stirring occasionally.  If you like your seeds to crisp up, increase your temperature to 300 degrees for the last 10 minutes.  Keep an eye on them, and stir every two minutes.  Let cool and serve.
