Simple, but good salad. I loved those toasted pecans! This is great for a side salad or starter salad for a larger meal because it's basically just escarole and pecans. I think it's good, but maybe needs another one or two ingredients. Maybe either some sliced mushrooms and/or some crumbled goat cheese would liven this up. I do love escarole, so thanx for a new recipe for it!
