Fifth Season recently expanded its prepared salad line with Caesar Shakeupm a 250-calorie reimagining of the classic salad that's completely vegetarian too. Unlike traditional Caesar salads that are made with anchovies, this one offers a different experience.
The ready-to-eat salad boasts a mix of "forkable" baby romaine leaves, shredded carrots, white beans, miniature pretzel bites and creamy dressing. Fifth Season Product Manager, Emily Ellis, says, "We love that the Caesar Shakup combines a classic flavor with elements that are totally unexpected. The flavors and textures in this salad make it really cravable - we think shoppers will prefer it to the anchovies or croutons found in traditional Caesars."
This new salad joins other options from the brand like Toasted Tuscan, Crunchy Sesame and Spicy Southwest.
