Ingredients

1 lb. sweet corn (about 2 1/2 cups)
2 bell peppers, diced
1 onion, diced
1 Tbsp. olive oil
2 Tbsp. pesto
6 oz. medium shrimp, cooked

Instructions

OPTIONAL: Lightly sauté the corn, bell peppers, and onion with olive oil, salt, and pepper. I sautéed each veggie individually for 3-5 minutes over medium-high heat. Allow to cool.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the olive oil and pesto. Then, add in the corn, bell peppers, and onion. Stir until the mixture is well-coated. Season with salt and pepper (if not seasoned while sautéing the veggies.) Finally, add the shrimp and carefully stir. Store in the fridge until ready to serve.
