Every Friday night is gluten free Pizza night at our house. Hubby and I really enjoy making pizza together and adding our own favorite toppings, but it is a lot of work and takes a good amount of time to make the dough, prepare all of the toppings and get it baked. By the time it's done I'm starving and the dog is laying on the kitchen rug drooling. He's a big fan of pizza too.

That's why when Freschetta asked me to try out their pizza I was intrigued. Could a frozen gluten-free pizza be as good as homemade?

I was thrilled to find that my local Publix on Eau Gallie carries all of the Freschetta Gluten Free Pizzas on Aisle 14. Grab a Freschetta $1.50 off coupon available from 8/16-9/06 before you go!

Freschetta® Gluten Free Pizza is available in two great gluten-free flavors and two convenient sizes, so families can keep the freezer stocked with items to simplify the challenges of following a gluten-free diet.

I bought each flavor and now I can't wait to try them out.

On the first night, hubby and I enjoyed making a BLT Pizza with the Freschetta® Gluten Free 4 Cheese Medley Pizza, that is covered edge-to-edge with 100-percent real mozzarella, Asiago, Fontina and Parmesan cheeses! 

This pizza is loaded with beautiful cheeses. The perfect base for my creamy yogurt pizza sauce. See recipe below!

I cooked up some bacon, sliced fresh tomatoes, avocados and grabbed a couple handfuls of fresh spinach for my toppings.  Hubby likes a over easy egg on his too.

Drizzle the yogurt pizza sauce right on top of the cheese and add your toppings.

Bake according to the package instructions and then add the bacon and avocado! The creamy sauce with the toppings tastes just like a BLT. So delicious and the crispy thin crust is fantastic.

That was a huge success!We both loved the pizza. There was enough for a nice light dinner and leftovers for lunch the next day! Want more info? Read all about Freschetta's Gluten-Free Pizza on their website here.

The next day we went to visit family so I decided to use another pizza for appetizers. I'm the only one who needs to eat gluten free and I wanted to get their opinion. I took the Freschetta® Gluten Free Signature Pepperoni Pizza, with premium pepperoni and real mozzarella cheese covering an extra-thin crust.

At home, I added some cooked sausage, mushrooms, chopped tomatoes and bit more Parmesan for fun.

Once we got there, we popped it in the oven while we had a glass of wine by the pool. Here's our lovely hostess showing the results.

Everyone raved about the pizza and it was devoured in no time at all.

Even the dogs got excited!

We had so much fun and I was really happy that my family loved the gluten free Freschetta pizza. It tastes as good as homemade and the crust is flavorful, light and crisp. You can pick up a piece and it holds together like regular pizza crust!

Plates were cleaned and we all went back for seconds!

Eliminating gluten doesn't mean you have to sacrifice great taste. This is a great tasting pizza that just happens to be gluten free.

Freschetta has perfected their deliciously delicate and crispy base to create a pizza the entire family can enjoy, regardless of whether they are sensitive to gluten or not. Freschetta® Gluten Free Pizza is pizza for the whole family – no one has to feel singled out.
