Freezer Pizza & Fast ‘Liquid’ Pizza: Easy Meal Prep for Busy Nights
Busy night? Skip the takeout—make pizza your easiest meal of the week. In this step-by-step class, you’ll learn how to prepare and freeze homemade pizzas for quick, healthy, affordable, stress-free dinners anytime. We’ll make fresh freezer-friendly pizza dough, use it to prepare the crusts, and go through the process required for topping, freezing, storage, and baking so they bake up perfectly from frozen each time. Important pro-tips for freezer friendly dough and toppings will also be shared.
You’ll also learn how to prepare a fast no-knead pizza—an easy mix-and-bake method that comes together in under an hour from start to finish. With make-ahead tips, and ready-to-go ingredient ideas, you’ll leave with practical ways to save time and money, eat healthier, and always have a delicious meal within reach. The recipes used are Chef Tess originals, intended to make the experience simple and flavorful each and every time.
Equipment Needs: Stand mixer, and 12-inch disposable aluminum pizza pans.
