Pesto Shrimp Primavera image

This is a simple dish. If you use the already made pesto in the refrigerated section, people will think you worked forever to make this. I can not eat this-I'm allergic to seafood--but my family tells me it's wonderful (I hate them).

This recipe was a total disaster. I followed the instructions exactly and it turned out inedible.

The shrimp was a bit overcooked, but the veggies were cooked perfectly.

This recipe was a total disaster. The sauce curdled and the shrimp was raw.

The shrimp was a bit rubbery, but the veggies were cooked perfectly.

Not a fan. The shrimp was overcooked and the sauce was bland.
