I mean no one’s replacing Dr oetker frozen pizzas with home made, the whole point of them is they’re pretty cheap and you can throw them in the oven for a quick meal. Not saying you shouldn’t make home made pizzas, these frozen ones are not good and also not very healthy, but I don’t think this is one of those things you can directly replace with a home made version, the home made you’ll make for a proper dinner or something. Maybe replace the frozen pizzas with something else that’s equally quick/easy but more home made though.
I mean, i do. It’s quickly made if you buy the dough.
Then again, since i live alone, i started to assess meals by their nutritional value vs. calories, since you can only eat so much a day and i want to lose weight. It’s second nature now and that might not be typical.
I’m right there with you, least year I lost 35kg by counting calories, and now I’m maintaining and working out, so while I don’t count anymore I’m still following the principles I learned thought that and these premade pizzas are off the menu… I’m just being realistic about how these frozen pizzas are used by folks who don’t do that (they used to be my favourite quick lunch options in my pre-diet life). Your recipe included making the dough which is what really pushed it out of the realm of realistic.

My goto frozen pizza “hack”, just get the cheapest most basic pizza margherita, skip known brands and go for the housebrand/offbrand.
Buy some quality toppings and add them, like a spicey salami, aged cheese, etc.
