- In a large bowl, mix together the remaining ingredients, including the DOLE Butter Bliss lettuce. Toss in the couscous. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Stuff the salad into the hollowed oranges.
Tips & Tricks
Pump up the flavor even more by adding 3 tablespoons of your favorite Italian dressing to the mix before stuffing. If you’re onion-shy, use just half of the red onion, plus 1 green onion as a substitute.
