"You better cut the pizza in four pieces because I'm not hungry enough to eat six."
-Yogi Berra, Baseball great

The refrigerator light goes on...

I had been a little skeptical about making quick pizzas. I have been working on a number of different options and this one was one of the first. Honestly, I didn't think that it was going to be all that great but I really was wrong. This is a darn good pizza!
