Improved Frozen Cheese Pizza

littleturtle's Note:

This isn't really cooking, but it's a cheap and easy way to have almost home-made pizza fast. It's great for starving college students. This is a good source of protein, calcium and vitamin A, and we used to get 5 frozen pizzas for $10.

Yum! This really did make my simple pizza much tastier! I used provel cheese and oregano on a Tostino's pizza for lunch and Wow! Thanks so much for posting this tip!

We always add extra cheese to our frozen pizza (a staple for us -- especially the kids), but I really liked the addition of the oregano!! I will definately be doing that in the future -- thanks!! :)

awesome idea! I usually add oregano to the top of the cheap totino's pizza but never thought to add extra cheese. I didn't add as much as the recipe called for, just kinda eye-balled it and it still came out delicious! major improvement to the boring ol' yucky plain cheap pizzas. I was tired tonite and didn't feel like cooking anything too major, so this hit the spot. thanks for a keeper!
