Make dressing by combining shallots, oregano, mustard and vinegar together in a small bowl. Whisk in olive oil to make an emulsion. Season with salt, pepper and dried red pepper flakes. Set aside.
Slice the lettuce into thin strips and then chop strips up into small bite-size pieces. Put lettuce in a large bowl. Arrange the remaining ingredients on top of the lettuce until ready to serve. Toss with dressing. Add dressing to only the portion of salad you plan to eat and save the remaining for another meal the next day.
