Meatball Pizza

I have to tell you: I feel some type of way about pizza. When I see it on TV, it does something to me, like I'm in love or deep, intense infatuation. I've been known to rewind the DVR to see a pizza cutter crash through a crust or slo-mo the pull of a gooey string of cheese. Yeah. I'm a little obsessed. 

What's not obsessive is that I usually leave my refrigerated dough options up to the name brand retailers and focus on premium toppings to satisfy my cravings.

I don't have to do that any more.

Let me introduce you to Wewalka. It's a premium refrigerated dough that "combines authentic European bakery quality with improved convenience."



I'm not familiar with many refrigerated dough brands. I don't make pizza often because I prefer to make my own dough. And I don't always want to wrestle with yeast, measure flour and wait. And wait. 

When I was approached about trying out Wewalka, I did a little research and it's a win-win for everyone. 

My FAVORITE of the line is the Wewalka Bistro Style Pizza Dough. Thin, easily customizable and in less than 15 minutes, I was eating!

Pizza time, pizza time, pizza time!


Not only is the dough convenient and ready-to-bake from the fridge, it comes on a piece of parchment paper so you don't need a rolling pin (or a pan, I guess)! Score!


Initially, I wasn't thrilled with the impressions left on the dough from when it was rolled up in the package, but as you'll see later, it doesn't really matter.

A little store bought sauce, leaving a little room for crust is the way to go.

Brush that crust with a little olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper to bring out the natural flavors of the dough and help that crust stay crispy, crunchy and delicious.

I use a mix of mozzarella, provolone and Parmesan cheese to make sure my cheese game is strong.

  3. Wow, that's giving me a craving! Maybe I shouldn't admit this, but we eat a LOT of pizza in my house. I've never seen this brand before (but I don't normally look for refrigerated dough, either). I'll make a point of looking for it in the future.

  4. Pizza is one of my dessert island foods... honestly, I could eat it all day, every day and never get tired.
    I also prefer to make my own dough, but sometimes a gal just needs her pizza fix right now. I don't think I've seen Wewalka before, but I'll have to keep an eye out next time I'm at the store!

  9. I like to make my own crust too, and almost always do. But this crust looks like it could be a really great option for when we really want pizza but just don't have time to make it from scratch. YUM!

  10. I saw your video, Nancy! I love putting pizza on the grill. It can be done year round and the smoky flavor of the crust is always a win!
