Bursting with color and nutrition, Chef James’s meal is feast for your eyes and your palate. He lightly sautés succulent shrimp and tosses them in fresh homemade pesto for a burst of fresh, vibrant basil flavor. Velvety creamed leeks and sweet, earthy roasted beets are the perfect accompaniments. Sprinkle on the toasted Panko breadcrumbs for added crunch. It all adds up to a beautifully vibrant balance of flavors and textures—and just 520 calories!

The beets were uninspired. Bland and not cooked enough. Could have used a couple more shrimp.
