To prepare this pizza, preheat your oven according to the package directions, typically around 400-425 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove the pizza from its packaging and place it directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet. Bake for the time specified on the box, usually between 15 to 25 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted. For a crispier crust, you can place it directly on the oven rack. Let it cool slightly before slicing and serving.
