Equipment

  • 1 mason jar with lid

Ingredients

  • ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • ⅓ cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes (*not in oil)
  • 1 small shallot, minced
  • 3 teaspoons pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Prepare the shallot and sun-dried tomatoes by mincing them.  
  • Place all of the ingredients into either a mason jar and give it a good shake or a small bowl and whisk it all up.
  • Enjoy it right away or store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week. 

Notes

-In my opinion, this dressing is even better the next day.  After removing the covered container from the fridge, if the olive oil has become solid, allow the container to sit on the counter for an hour before serving.
-If you need to feed more than roughly 4 people, simply double the recipe.
