I didn't have any green apples, so I used a Granny Smith apple instead. It worked just as well.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover escarole. I had some in my fridge that was starting to wilt and this salad was the perfect way to use it up.

I love the combination of flavors in this salad. The escarole is bitter, the green apple is sweet, and the vinaigrette is tangy. It's a really refreshing and delicious salad.
