slo’s MONDAY 5/22 poll - Adding Cheese To Frozen Pizza

[slo]

When you make a frozen pizza, do you add extra cheese?
If yes…..how much?
(multiple choice)



For Me….When I make a frozen pizza, I ALWAYS add more cheese, and I add about 1 cup.
* I made a frozen pizza for myself last night, which is what inspired this poll

I might add a sprinkle more if I have some shredded cheese in the fridge, but I don’t like it too cheesy anyways. I’m more likely to add extra tomato, peppers or onions.

 

[Kitty 34]

I sprinkle Parmesan cheese on it when it's done but that's it.

 

[LoveSpringsteen]

I sometimes add cheese to frozen pizzas if I have mozzarella in the fridge, but I usually buy the take and bake pizzas from Aldi instead of frozen pizzas and usually don’t add cheese to them.

 

[Meriweather]

I do not eat frozen pizza (or any pizza) but I make them for the grand kids.
I make pizza dough a lot for other things too. We call it Big Sandwich and DGD gets one almost every week

 

[kymom99]

My husband piles it on. I usually don’t unless it looks particularly skimpy.

 

[fly girl]

I do not add extra cheese.

 

[soccerdad72]

Never thought to do that - I suppose I might try it sometime.

 

[Moliphino]

If the cheese seems skimpy I will totally add more. Sometimes I'll add more pepperoni, too.

If the frozen pizza needs extra toppings, then I look for a different brand to buy. Many brands are just terrible.

I typically buy a frozen cheese pizza myself and then add my own ingredients (I like jalapeno and pineapple, which most places don't have...), so after I add those, I add the extra cheese to anchor them down. Usually about 1/2 - 1 cup.

Usually if I'm eating a frozen pizza it was because I wanted to be SUPER lazy, so it is what it is. I'm not adding anything to it and am fully prepared for it to be just okay and nothing special. If I wanted good pizza I'd have gone elsewhere.

 

[DVCjj]

Yes. I always add chopped olives on top if not already on.

(Never ever have pepperoni pizza Don’t like).

 

[fla4fun]

I used to, but I found if I buy the cheese pizzas, they already have extra. Since I was adding toppings, it just made sense to buy the cheese pizzas in the first place.

If for some reason I can’t buy cheese pizzas, then I will usually add a little bit extra.

 

[loves to dive]

Don't add it. I don't eat frozen pizza that much but I have high triglycerides so I try to stay as low fat as I can. Even when I order it out, I request light cheese.

 

[ronandannette]

Nope - never. When we want a hearty, saucy, cheesy pizza with heavy toppings, we get take-out. We eat frozen pizza fairly regularly and the brand we buy is thin-crust and lightly topped (think kind of like a Margherita pizza). That's what we like about it. It comes in quite a few varieties and these ones are my absolute favorite!

I grew up in the 1960's and money was tight. I think I had my first pizza parlor pizza in about 1976, it was just too darn expensive. So I grew up on frozen pizza as a kid, that my mom loaded up with cheese and mushrooms and meat, or frequently, the Chef Boyardee pizza kits.
So yes, when we have a frozen pizza we doctor it up.

 

[tasha99]

I don't. Either I make the pizza or just go with what's on a frozen pizza. Usually if I make it, it's dinner. If it's frozen, it's a snack. I'm not too snobby about frozen pizza, either--I actually like some of the cheaper brands, even Totinos.

 

[MamaMermaid]

We don't! I've never even thought of it.

I love Tostino’s. Ate one last night after getting home from a weekend road trip. I don’t need anything else on it, DH always wants extra cheese so whether or not I add any depends on if we are sharing.
