Does anyone else love Trader Joe’s pizza dough as much as I do? It’s fresh, convenient, and only 99 cents per bag!
I’ve used their whole wheat dough before, but I prefer their plain dough. It was perfect for a Saturday night at home. I took it out of the fridge and let it sit for about 20 minutes before I rolled it out.
I floured the counter, then set to work at stretching it out with my hands. I topped it with TJ’s pizza sauce, and then added chopped (fresh) spinach before adding mozzarella and ricotta. I used a greased baking sheet and baked it at 350* for ~20 minutes.
I normally follow the baking directions on the bag, but next time I’ll probably bake it at a higher temp for a shorter amount of time.
Either way, it was perfect for a Saturday night in, while watching Miss America and a Lifetime movie. I’m pretty sure that between Elizabeth and I, we have seen just about every Lifetime movie that’s out there. Did I really just admit that? π
Have you ever used Trader Joe’s pizza dough? Or, have you ever made your own dough?
Random- Where do you think MTV will film the next season of Jersey Shore? I read that they might be fist pumpin’ in the Hamptons!
Back to watching the Grammy’s… the dresses, the performances, oh my!

I’ve only tried their WW dough which Jason doesn’t like. I’ll have to try the regular kind.
Isn’t the Hamptons in NY? How can it be called Jersey Shore if it’s in NY?
Yeah… I don’t know! I guess MTV feels the need to switch things up, but honestly, Snooki & crew are so ridiculous that I don’t think it matters where they are!
Yum! Love those chunks of cheese!
I had pizza tonight as well but used a pre-made thin crust so I was extra lazy…
Omg, I love TJ’s pizza dough!!!!!!!! It is my FAVORITE!! What makes it so good?!!!! But actually, I always get the WW. I’ve never tried the regular, but I’m sure it’s pretty awesome!! π Your pizza looks heavenly!! π
That is one delicious looking pizza! I love TJs- their products just ROCK! I usually make my own dough. I love keeping tons of it on hand in the freezer. I thought the grammys were great- I only watched about an hour, but the performances were awesome
Since moving to my house, I no longer have a Trader Joe’s. This post just made me remember how much I love and miss their dough. Sigh. At least I have a Wegmans, yes?
Am I the only one who thinks that a good grocery store nearby should increase your property value?
happiness awaits
I love the TJ’s pizza crust too! Yeah I usually like to buy the whole wheat but you have to cook it WAY longer than it says on the package. No matter what, I can’t seem to cook it long enough. I don’t have that problem with the plain. Weird.
