- To reheat: Place the pizza on a baking sheet and bake at 425°F for about 10 minutes, or until heated through. You can also use the microwave.
- Freezing: You can freeze the pizza for up to 2 months. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and then place it in an airtight container or ziplock freezer bag. Follow directions for reheating directly from frozen.
