To prepare, remove the pizza from its packaging and place it directly on an oven rack or baking sheet. Preheat your oven to the temperature specified on the packaging, typically around 400-425 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake for the recommended time, usually 15-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Allow it to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to fresh or take-out pizza, frozen pizza offers longer shelf life and requires no immediate preparation. Its crust texture and cheese melt may differ from artisanal or freshly made pizzas due to the freezing and baking process.

How to keep the rest
After baking, store any leftover pizza in an airtight container or wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Refrigerate promptly and consume within a few days for best quality. Do not refreeze cooked pizza.
