Frozen pizza is one of those go-to meals that delivers comfort with almost no effort required. Not all pizzas are created equal, however, and with plenty of options in the freezer aisle, the best ones can get lost in the shuffle. But if you want to keep things easy, Target's Good & Gather Signature Wood-Fired Margherita Frozen Pizza is worth a try.

This six-slice pie features the classic combination of tomato, mozzarella, and basil, without any unnecessary extras. It's made without artificial flavors, sweeteners, synthetic colors, or high-fructose corn syrup. Compared to similar products like DiGiorno's Margherita Thin Crust Pizza, which contains ingredients like palm oil, gum acacia, and mono- and diglycerides, Good & Gather sticks to a more straightforward lineup. 

With an average of 4.2 stars from over 1,000 ratings on the Target website, fans praise the pizza for its simple ingredients, great taste, and crispy crust, with several reviewers saying that it's even better than what you'd get from a restaurant or pizza chain. One reviewer says, "I was skeptical at first, but I have to say that this pizza is actually amazing. It's inexpensive and very tasty. And it doesn't take that long to cook!" At just $7.99 (up to about $9.99, depending on your region), fans also mention its budget-friendly price point. 

But not everyone is a fan. Some reviewers noted the toppings can be somewhat inconsistent, some receiving just a single basil leaf or a couple of tomato pieces on their pizza rather than evenly distributed. Opinions on the flavor are mixed, with some praising the simple combination of ingredients while others find it a little dull.

The straightforward ingredients list on this Good & Gather pizza is part of its appeal, but that simplicity also makes it a great starting point for customization. Reviewers have suggested adding extra toppings to build on the classic Margherita flavors. One shopper, for example, wrote on the product's page, "I added a little extra pesto and Romano before baking to add more flavor." Another reviewer recommends adding vegetables. You could also drizzle some infused olive oil on top, add some freshly ground black pepper, or upgrade your frozen pizza with a little lemon juice or zest. The oil adds depth and moisture, giving the pie a more rounded flavor, while the pepper balances the mozzarella's creaminess and gives the tomatoes a slight kick, and the lemon adds brightness to balance the rich cheese.

If you want to take it a step further, add some spice by sprinkling red pepper flakes, drizzling chili oil, or topping your pie with hot honey post-bake. They won't overpower the tomato or mozzarella and, instead, make each bite more interesting. You can also use the pizza as a starting point for a more customized pie. Add sun-dried tomatoes for a more intense tomato flavor, anchovies for a salty kick, or banana peppers for added texture and tanginess. Dollops of burrata or shaved parmesan can give it a richer cheese topping. All small adjustments, but these simple upgrades can make Target's frozen pizza feel less predictable.
