Make pizza for your family the lazy way, perfect for a busy week night.

As much as I love learning to cook from scratch, some evenings I simply want to put a delicious meal on the table that I know everyone will enjoy, without all the preparation and washing up.

That's where my zero cooking meals come in.

A selection of store-bought foods and ingredients that I've personally chosen, with attention to quality, flavour and convenience.

Because not every family meal needs to be made from scratch to be enjoyed.

So, here’s my Zero Kneading Pizza, made with thoughtfully chosen, store-bought ingredients. I’ve selected a ready-made, slow-fermented sourdough pizza base with no added preservatives, offering the convenience of a prepared base without compromising on the quality of the ingredients.

No dough to make, no sauces to prepare and no lengthy preparation. Just a few ready-made ingredients brought together with minimal effort for a delicious family meal.

Introducing Farro Pizza Base, when it's this good already made, why not indulge?

I buy mine from Coles for $7.50. There are other ready-made pizza options available, option that don't need any additional toppings, my little one loves the "salami" option, but I do enjoy adding a few fresh ingredients to mine.

My favourite combination is delicate slices of prosciutto, creamy burrata, semi-sun dried tomatoes and fresh, peppery rocket. It's such a simple way to turn a ready-made pizza into something a little more special, with hardly any extra effort.

I don't know about you, but one of the first things I do when choosing a store-bought product is turn it over and read the ingredients. If you're the same, I've saved you a little time by including the full ingredients list below, so you can see exactly what's in it before heading to the shops.

Ingredients List:

Organic Spelt Dough, (Organic Spelt Flour (Gluten), Filtered Water, Salt, Sourdough (Organic Spelt Flour, Starter Culture) & Yeast), Organic Tomato Sauce (Organic Diced Tomato, Organic E.V.O. Oil, Basil, & Organic Oregano), Organic E.V.O. Oil

If you're on the lookout for convenient, ready-made meals to keep tucked away in the freezer for those busy weeknights, give this one a try. Having a few pizza bases on hand means there's always a quick and delicious dinner option ready when you need it. Simply take one out, add your favourite toppings and pop it in the oven. We certainly love pizza night here at the Walsh house, especially when it's this easy to put together.

Happy Pizza Night,
