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.

SERVES 8 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 medium frozen cheese pizza
1 teaspoon crushed dry oregano
8 ounces shredded monterey jack cheese or mozzarella cheese

Directions

1
Sprinkle oregano over the pizza.
2
Sprinkle cheese over the top.
3
Add any other desired toppings (mushrooms, browned ground beef, shredded parmesan cheese, etc.).
4
Bake for about 20 minutes at 425F or until the cheese is hot and bubbly.
5
Slice and serve.

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!

My dd (college student but living at home) could eat her weight in pizza- frozen-take out- hot- cold- whatever.... She made this - yes amazing - she cooked- I know! .. anyway she made this and LOVED it! Wants to give you 10 stars but guess we have to settle for 5. Thanks for posting this. I hate to see her eat the yucky cardboard pizza that she will sneak into the house to satisy her pizza urges! lol - This made the cheapest, ickiest pizza taste pretty darn good to me! Thanks!

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!!
