Steps

1
Finely chop the shallot and add to a small jar, along with the oil, vinegar, and Dijon. Season with salt and pepper. Tighten lid on jar and shake vigorously until well combined.

TIP: Change up this salad by including canned artichoke hearts, hard-boiled eggs, cherry tomatoes, and boiled potatoes.
