A Taste of Chicago

Yea, I won! I enter Joelen's Foodie Freebie Friday contests on an almost-weekly basis, and a couple weeks ago, I had the pleasure of winning a couple Chicago Style Pizzas, shipped directly to my doorstep! I picked two flavors from the Lou Malnati's website, and I had them a few days later. Thanks Joelen!!Each pizza came in its own foil pan to bake it in. Before baking, they suggest you defrost in the fridge for about 2 hours, then bake for 45 min. You can also bake directly from the freezer. This was a nice, easy dinner on Friday!
Can you see the layers on this pizza? A layer of cheese, a whole LAYER of sausage, and then topped with a very tasty sauce!REVIEW:
I was even impressed with the packaging! The pizzas arrived wrapped in a cooler with dry ice - they stayed perfectly frozen during shipping. So far we only tried the sausage pizza - but oh, my was it good! The sausage is blended especially for Lou Malnati's and its really tasty! I especially liked the sauce - a little on the chunky side, just how I like it. It was a nice deep dish crust without being too greasy or doughy. I also picked the Spinach Pizza (spinach, provolone, onions, garlic and basil), and I can't wait to try it!
