To prepare, preheat your oven to the temperature specified on the packaging, typically around 400°F (200°C). Remove the pizza from its packaging and place it directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet. Bake for the recommended time, usually 12-18 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the plant-based cheese is melted and bubbly. Allow it to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
