ABOUT Lauki Pizza RECIPE

This pesto sauce pizza is super healthy and delicious too. Bottle gourd pizza is a great option for parties. Instead of using the pizza sauce, I used pesto sauce. I made the Pesto from walnuts, dried basil leaves, and mozzarella cheese. Fresh basil leaves are required for making the sauce but if you don’t have fresh basil, use the dried ones. The sauce is equally tasty.
