Total Time: 35 minutes
Ingredients
8 ounces whole-wheat fettuccine
1/2 cup sliced jarred roasted red peppers
1/4 cup prepared pesto
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound raw shrimp, (21-25 per pound), peeled and deveined
1 cup dry white wine
Freshly ground pepper, to taste

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add fettuccine and cook for 3 minutes less than the package directions specify. Reserving 1/4 cup of the cooking water, drain the fettuccine and return to the pot. Stir in peppers and pesto. Cover to keep warm.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shrimp and cook, stirring occasionally, until pink, about 3 minutes.

Season with pepper and serve immediately.
