Spend an hour and make your own small pizzas with quality ingredients, tape them up in freezer paper and you have great eats in the same time it takes for Dominos to deliver a box of grease.
those caught my eye too, i like their restaurant food.
Caught my eye too.. I got two of the "thin and crispy" for $6.99 each on sale. Absolutely the biggest rip off and the funkiest tasting junk ever. I'm sure the orig company is quite good but since a major food engineering conglomerate took them over they suck royal ass. Absolutely the biggest rip off out there. The thin and crispy isnt even thin its a typical bland as hell tasting 3/8- 1/4' and they use salami instead of pepperoni and they give you virtualy NO cheese.
I vowed I would never buy anything from them and damn if they didn't get me again. Same conglomerate puts cellulose powder in all their cheese too.
Ok now that I vented, (this thread was what I needed)
best froz pizza now days for the money is Roma (and a Roma has at least 5 times more mozz than a cal kitchen pizza and we all know roma's are like 5 for $10.00 - Seriously!)
Best froz pizza for more money is Green Mill super thin and crispy. Always close to being sold out. Don't know if Green Mill is national.
I might try one of those Amys as I like to try new frozen pizzas.
pretty CRAFTy conglomerate but they wont fool me again!
Few will have the time or dedication to make real dough so I will not go there, and if your willing to buy some spare dough from the local pizza shop may as well just buy the pizza too. So I will not even go into why home made is "almost" as best, cheaper, and quicker than delivery.
There is a compromise to be had. You can find the pre-cooked pizza type doughs at most grocery stores. They also freeze well, but do not assemble and freeze - very bad. Now just purchase your favorite toppings, slice them up and either freeze them on a flat surface and then toss in a bag when frozen, or use fresh. Do not freeze your cheese, nor your sauce. Most Jarred pasta sauce can be reduced a bit on the stove and made into a decent pizza sauce. Then lastly just understand how some things freeze. The ice crystals will pierce holes in the cell structures of the veggies. So any that contain extra water should be blanched or even slightly cooked before freezing to prevent wet pizza. Things like mushrooms can dump out a lot of liquid for instance. Bell peppers should be blanched, onions can be as is. etc.
Assemble (often do not even need to unfreeze bread). Have oven on full blast and a pizza stone or a few patio stones at the bottom of your oven will help. Cook on those stones if you have them. You will be pretty satisfied.

Hate to say it but none can be made in under 30 minutes. However several batches can be made in about 1-2 hours plus additional resting and kept in the fridge several days and possibly the freezer.
I should have specified that I only eat the vegetarian ones. The ones with meat of any kind are weird tasting, I agree.
Yeah I read your post and didn't mean to take offense
But yeah I only tried the "Sicilian" thin and crispy" so the others might be ok.
Thing is they have this great couple of guys on the box (orig owners and you think damn looks good. Then it is only 12 1/2 oz and you think, damn must be really quality.
Then you open the box and the salami (notice that is why they call it "sicilian" so they can f you over with cheaper salami) is 2" in diam which means under these huge things the pizza doesn't cook as much unless you cook the heck out of it in which case your "salami" is like leather.
Then you cook it and it has a weird non pizza smell. The sausage is ok and there is just enough cheese to let you know, "yes there is supposed to be cheese".

my pops is big on making homemade bread, has this really nice bread oven and buys the best yeast and ingredients.
If I'm not lazy and want to make my own, I go to the local independent pizza shop and pick up a small dough ball for like a $1.50 - $2.00. Roll it out at home and put whatever you want on it.
No F'ing clue, I'm not really a picky eater, but the one I just ate was amazing, no clue what it was, I just put it in the oven and tossed everything else.
Wow, noone's mentioned Delissio? It's one of the few wholesome crusts I find that's non-cardboardy. Kind of like wholegrain bread crust. Not to mention the mafia style commercials hehe. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBdgoGj4HFg
