I'm not sure why this salad is called 'escarole and red leaf salad', because it also has arugula in it.

I love the combination of flavors in this salad. The escarole is slightly bitter, the red leaf lettuce is sweet, and the dressing is tangy and flavorful.

The dressing was a bit too tangy for my taste, but I was able to adjust it by adding a little bit of honey.

I've never had escarole before, but I really enjoyed it in this salad. It had a slightly bitter flavor that paired well with the sweetness of the red leaf lettuce.
