How to make
Boil the macaroni according to the instructions on the package. Strain them from the water and mix them with a little olive oil.
Peel the caps of the field mushrooms and cut them into thin pieces. The stumps will not be used for this salad.
Marinate the sliced mushrooms in a little olive oil, freshly squeezed lemon juice, black pepper and salt. Leave them aside while you prepare the rest of the salad components.
Wash and strain the curly lettuce well. An iceberg can also be used. Chop or roughly shred the fresh leaves.
Wash and cut the cherry tomatoes in half.
In a large bowl, mix the lettuce, tomatoes, pasta (cold) and marinated field mushrooms along with the marinade. Flavor the pasta salad with more olive oil, salt and freshly squeezed lemon juice. Stir.
Divide between two deeper plates, sprinkle with the pumpkin seeds and serve.
The lean macaroni salad is ready.
