Boboli Pizza

 

Boboli Pizza is a regular at our house. This thin and chewy, little bit puffy, perfectly crispy pizza makes our Friday nights!

 

 

Boboli pizza has been a hit in our home since the kids were wee ones.

I loved that I could easily make individual pizzas with the small crusts and one big one for Manservant and I.

The kids were happy to customize their toppings but somehow Zoe always ended up with cheese and Alex always added pepperoni, with not too much cheese because he tends to have some lactose issues.

My guess is their tastes have expanded since they were 5 years old, but this was way back in the 90’s when Boboli first came out.

 

 

This thin and chewy pizza crust has a bit more puff in it than if you make your own, however I never seemed to find the time for it way back when.

However now that the kids have flown the coop my shelves now contain a pizza stone and a wood pizza paddle and I’ve been trying to perfect the art of making Chicago style bar pizza. When I get there, you will be the first to know!

You can find the Boboli crust in the dry goods aisle in the pizza section at the grocery. The original version, which is a bit thicker than the thin, is perfect for grilling season.

How do you bake a Boboli pizza?

We prefer the thin crust which I bake at 450 degrees, directly on the top rack of my oven. I like it nice and crispy and the cheese golden and chewy, but I find if I put it on the middle rack the crust tends to burn.

 

 

No pizza pans necessary!

Sometimes when I’ve overloaded the crust and it drips in the oven, I’ve even managed to set the smoke alarm off! One reason I prefer a top rack!

You know your oven better than I do, but this works for me.

Homemade Pizza Sauce

As far as Boboli pizza sauce…well, I have the best pizza sauce recipe. Sorry, Boboli. I think yours is a bit sweet.

My homemade pizza sauce is so easy to make, no cooking required, and truly makes your pizza taste homemade. Feel free to adjust the seasonings, but hey, this is how we do it!

 

 

As far as toppings go, I’ve given you ours below. This pizza happens to be missing mushrooms, because I hadn’t planned on making pizza, but then life got in the way and pizza saved our dinner!

But mushrooms? Freshly sliced, please!

This pizza crust truly is a lifesaver for me. When I send Manservant around the corner to buy pizza, it just is never as good as this!

Plus it takes as long to place the order, wait for it to be ready, and then drive to get it, as it does to prepare this Boboli pizza recipe.

 

 

We’ve made seafood pizzas by using red sauce and shrimp and scallops as toppings. I’ve grilled it with a bbq chicken topping and I’ve even cut it into strips and made crispy garlic bread. Yum!

A word on cheese. Shred your own. It really does taste better and it is so much fresher!

Give Boboli a try. When the kids were younger I often bought the individual sizes and set up a pizza topping bar. It was fun and everyone could make their own.

This is a good idea for parties but most young kids I know eat only cheese and a few may add pepperoni. (See above. LOL!) Which, of course, creates a lot of extra work on your part if the party is for kids!

 

 

No sponsored post here. Just a fan of Boboli, you could say. 

After all, we all need a shortcut here and there.
