Insalata Stefano

So I made this one up a few years ago as an extension to your basic insalata mista, but by no means do I lay claim to being the salad superstar as I can't hold a candle to my wife in this arena. Still, this is a really good accompaniment to a good steak, and one good enough to put my name on it.

Insalata Stefano
1 head escarole
1/2 of a celery root
1 small beet
1 small carrot
buttermilk dressing (not ranch)
black pepper
cherry tomatoes

chop the root vegetables into short thin strips, seed the tomotoes and dice, combine the other ingredients with a liberal amount of black pepper and a little more dressing than normal to offset the density of the root vegetables.
