Pesto pizza recipe with step by step pictures. Refreshing and light pesto pizza made with naan bread.
Pesto Pizza
Remember the cilantro pesto recipe I posted the other day. And this is the continuation of that recipe. Apart from this I made some delicious sandwiches, pasta with that pesto. Will surely post recipe soon. Coming back to this recipe. I love pizza so much. This is a lazy kind of pizza for lazy people. Because I made this with naan which is an indian kind of flatbread. This pizza is very simple and needs only a couple of minutes to cook. The surprise ingredient here is chives and that what gave a refreshing taste to this pizza. I hope you all will give it a try and let me know what you think.
