Pizza is great. Whether I order a slice from Pizza Hut or I get a whole pie from Papa John’s, I love the taste of pizza. There is just something about the thickness of the dough, the sweetness of the sauce, the juiciness of the toppings, and the smell of the melting cheeses on top. I have not met a slice of pizza that I didn’t like.
If I’m not in the mood to spend a ton of money on a pizza from one of the major pizza producers, I will swing by Target or Walmart and buy a frozen pizza. I did recently try to make my own pizza, at home, and it didn’t turn out the way I had hoped. I will just save that for the professionals.
Over the last few years, manufactures have been adding a little more value to the frozen pizzas. What goes great with a good frozen pie? How about breadsticks? When Digiorno’s started adding a side of breadsticks, the world rejoiced.
But they have taken this one step further. Breadsticks just aren’t enough. Now they are selling a side of chocolate chip cookies with a frozen pizza.
The cookie dough is courtesy of Nestle Toll House, and right now all that has been planned is chocolate chip. But I can see a wide range of cookie dough coming soon.
So the next time I go to the grocery store, and pick up my dinner, I might have to grab a side of cookie dough as well. What’s next for the future of frozen pizza? Maybe some wings would be nice. Before too long they will just serve up the entire buffet line in every box.
What is your favorite frozen pizza? What toppings do you like best?
I like Papa Murphy’s to bring home and bake. If they could serve hot wings with the frozen, or take and bake, pie, I’d be happy. I lived in a town once where you could have your pizza, beer, and a movie delivered to your door.
They already beat you to the idea of wings or rather, “Wyngz.” Read more here… http://huff.to/dUPMm3
That. Is. Awesome! I knew they did a pizza and wings combo… but man… let’s eat! Thanks for reading and thanks for commenting Jeremiah!
You really will blog about anything won’t you! My favorite frozen pizza is still those cheap Totino’s sausage pizzas. I know most people find them gross, but they bring back childhood memories every time we heat one up.
Harrison, I LOVE those pizzas. How do you eat yours? I like to suck all of the toppings off, then eat the crust. I also cook them a few minutes less than suggested so I can get a cool center. Hate an overcooked pizza. I can blame my mother for that… she wasn’t the best cook. So rather than burn it… I cook it less than suggested. Never changed. Still love my pizza chilled. Thanks for the comments sir!
Ricky I too love me a good Digiorno’s pizza and with the cheesy bread… yum! They are, in my opinion, the best in frozen pizza. Sad to say that they are also (by far) the most unhealthy frozen pizza on the market in fat, calories, and sodium. I’d like them to work on ways to make healthier pizza instead of adding cookies and wings. As a recovering chubster, I do appreciate their 200 calorie pizzas but how about something in the middle when you want a thicker crust but need to be more health conscious than the current product?
Anita, I am right there with you. Why does EVERYTHING that tastes good have to be high in fat and in calories? it seems like no matter where I go, all the good stuff is going to make me fat! But I would like to see more companies focus on healthier alternatives. Of course, throwing chocolate chip cookies int he mix doesn’t help! Thanks for your comments; always appreciated.
