  2. In large skillet, heat about 1-2 T. olive oil.
  3. Add shrimp and start to sauté. Do not overcook.
  4. About a minute after you add shrimp, add the onion, peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes and Rotel. Blend well.
  5. Add ⅓ c. pesto sauce. Squeeze lemon juice. Taste for seasoning.
  6. Simmer until everything is cooked.
  7. You can either blend in pasta or serve over pasta.
  8. Sprinkle with cheese when serving.
Notes
*****I usually like to serve it over pasta first. Then with leftovers, I like to blend the two and add some steamed veggies like broccoli, asparagus, snow peas, etc. and put into baking casserole dish. Cover with foil and heat in oven to serve. Serve with a nice salad and you have another meal
