Freschetta Frozen Pizzas — 

Since I'm an online food writer, I hate to confess that I am a frozen pizza eater. This is a really small town. Take out options are quite limited. There's chicken at the gas station, and we do have a Subway now. There are days when I'm flat tired, and frozen pizzas always go over well with my boys. I like them too (so shoot me). I try to keep back-up pizzas in the freezer.

Generally I buy the sale frozen pizzas. Most of them taste pretty much alike. OK. There are minor differences. But a frozen pizza is a frozen pizza. Until . . .

Freschetta really makes a better frozen pizza. I was just blown away when I grabbed some on sale. The one that really is a hit is the Brick Oven Freschetta. The crust tastes like restaurant pizza, and the sauce is a very tasty blend of tomatoes and spices. The toppings are generous. The whole family has been most impressed.

I'm an infomation junkie, so I looked up Freschetta online after we fell in love with the pizzas. The Brick Oven won an award for "Best New Product of the Year." We're obviously not the only fans.

Another frozen pizza was on sale last week. I made those tonight. My older son said, "This isn't Freschetta, is it?" I had to confess to being cheap. The sale pizza was a couple of dollars less per pie than Freschetta. Live and learn. I'll definately keep an eye out for Freschetta on sale (and stock up), and I'll just spring for the extra until then. We're now frozen pizza snobs. Shhhh. Don't tell anyone.

I am also a fan of Freschetta's frozen pizzas. I don't think any other frozen pizzas come close to the taste of these. I really like the crust!

Oh yes. I like California Pizza Kitchen too. My boys aren't as keen on them, because they have some "different" toppings.

The California Pizza kitchen ones are also quite good-- the thin crust.

Shame on you Bryan! Not Tony's. Ahhh. Just kidding. Frozen pizzas really are handy on busy days. And, all of them are OK. Well, I've not tried them all. The ones I've tried, I like fine. Tombstone would be our second favorite around here.

Yep, I'm one of those frozen pizza eaters myself and I must say that Freschetta does rank among the better ones. Your review makes me want to pop my Tony's Pepperoni pizza into the oven right now.
