Default Require a sans-serif to go with Minion Pro

Hi,
I'm designing a document that has minion pro as the body text. I'd like to use a sans-serif for captions and titles. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

hehe really? You prefer the serious contrast of bold sans to delicate serif? It's a combo that can work and fail in near equal amounts....

Always prefer futura, but I do think it jumps oddly thick between medium and bold
