Ha that's a VERY mixed bag! Perhaps this one sums it up—"Tasty but too crusty"

It's the kind of pizza I'd make at home and be very pleased with the result, but on reflection, for £4.50 I do want a bit more. Maybe their red box pepperoni offers that.

Most nights of the week, I'd buy a Dr Oetker's pizza. It's anything but classy and 'schoolnight' rather than 'datenight', but it doesn't half tick a lot of boxes.

I’m envious @Daxx
Dr Oetker’s Vegan margarita pizza was my Favourite frozen pizza! I prefer a pizza that is rather plain rather than pilled high and I don’t like thick crust… Alas, I haven’t been able to find it here in Ireland for the past few years… There were at least 2 supermarkets that used to stock it, not any more…

Pity :-/
How are the PB sections generally in the Irish supermarkets? In the UK they're still pretty good, but we're definitely past the goldrush of several years ago.
 
No frozen pizzas over here! Tons of omnis and vegetarian ones but no plant based ones!

A bowl of red lentils, peas, finely diced smoked tofu with a sprinkle of lemon pepper, yeast flakes plus a drizzle of evo.

Apple puree with a few drops of vanilla plus a drizzle of soya cream.
A few squares of mint filled plain chocolate;

Most of the large supermarkets have a small selection of fresh and frozen Vegan options… However, it is not at all at the level that it was a few years ago and none of the pizzas are ones that I would buy…

Tonight it is a black bean and sweet potato chilli. Cheap, filling, and dead easy, as you say.

I batch cook it and freeze a few portions for those lazy evenings when cooking feels like a chore. Last week I grabbed the black beans and spices from McGrocer, along with some rice. Works out way cheaper than a takeaway, honestly.
 
A BOSH! Margarita with veg. It's traditional, understated, and would 100% pass as 'normal' pizza.
We had this last week and it's a very nice pizza. Lovely base. Same with the peppernoni one. But there's about 15 strands of cheese on them... 😅 it does annoy me that I have to add my own cheese to a store bought pizza, but they all have this issue!
 
A lentil & oat loaf served with carrots plus evo, fried mushrooms and mushroom gravy. I bought a huge discounted box
of mushrooms (3.200 kg) and shared some with my neighbour. However, I have tons more so will be doing some cooking.

Half a mango.

you know how sometimes meals just taste extra good for no discernible reason? that was last night - the usual souped up rice in the cooker with raisins, fennel seeds, cayenne, garlic powder, turmeric and some chives and then Ikea veggie balls with Korean BBQ sauce - put some hot sauce on top of the rice and wow, it just seemed incredible and spicier that those sauces had been previously - so good

I'll be having a Beyond burger bowl with lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, red onions and some sort of mayo sauce. Tofu chocolate mousse for dessert.
