Cooking Instructions
- Preheat the oven. Upper and lower heat 225 °C or convection: 200 °C
- When heating the oven, let the pizza thaw for 15 minutes at room temperature without the plastic wrap.
- Place the pizza on the bottom rack of the oven and bake for approx. 10-12 minutes.
- The pizza will be ready to serve when the cheese is well melted and the crust is crispy and golden.
A cute detail is that the cooking instructions can be punched out of the box via perforation.
This is pretty smart because how often do you throw the box away as soon as you unpack the pizza and then have to dig in the trash to double check the instructions?! :p
Our Review — Worth Buying?
Would we rebuy Pizza Gigante again? Yes! This is a pretty nice frozen pizza. It’s a bit more expensive than this garlic pizza or even the Trader Joe’s Stuffed Crusts.
Overall we preferred the Pizza Gigante plain cheese pizza a but more than this mushroom and ham version, and then we can add our own toppings to taste!
Rating: 3/4 — It’s good
