This vibrant mix is the perfect case in point: tender lettuces, sweet and crispy carrots, snap peas and DOLE® Celery Hearts, earthy mushrooms, zesty slices of red onion, all tossed in a light and tangy buttermilk dressing. Top it with a generous handful of crunchy croutons and you end up with a culinary study that proves that with the right combination of ingredients, contrast can indeed lead to deliciously unified results.
