Jamie Oliver's Beet and Feta Salad

A bright beet salad that's sure to lift your spirits! Here's a recipe for a really simple salad — one, two, and it's done. The only thing is, you'll need to boil the beets in advance, or buy them pre-cooked at the store (yes, they sell those now too). I caught this salad recipe on one of Jamie Oliver's shows and was pleasantly surprised that it calls for totally ordinary ingredients — he often uses something you just can't get your hands on.
