I’ve written about Home Run Inn frozen pizzas previously<\/a>;\u00a0 it\u2019s the best-selling pie in the greater Chicagoland area.<\/p>\n

Today I sampled one of their individual-sized pies (what?\u00a0 Extra large is \u201cindividual-sized\u201d for me!) \u00a0These are generally at the grocery for around $3.69 each, of three for $10.\u00a0\u00a0 They weigh 8.75 ounces, when their \u201cregular\u201d size pizza clocks in at 31 ounces.\u00a0 Sometimes I like to buy weight\/value, and even at three for $10, the individual pies are \u201cless value\u201d (price per ounce) \u00a0than HRI\u2019s \u201cregular\u201d size.<\/p>\n

The \u201cClassic\u201d line Sausage and Pepperoni features uncured pepperoni.\u00a0 Uncured deli meats are all the range these days, appealing to that portion of the population looking for \u2018healthy alternatives\u2019, or at least convincing themselves that they are.<\/p>\n

The rest of the pie\u2019s ingredients are fairly straight forward, to wit:<\/p>\n

Crust:<\/strong>\u00a0Wheat flour, water, corn oil, yeast, salt
\nMozzarella Cheese:<\/strong>\u00a0Pasteurized part-skim milk, cheese cultures, salt, enzymes
\nSauce:<\/strong>\u00a0Tomato puree, water, oregano, salt, black pepper
\nSausage:<\/strong>\u00a0Pork, salt, spices, flavoring<\/p>\n

It’s a great Italian sausage, one of the best available in frozen pizzas, in my opinion.<\/p>\n

Home Run Inn claims their frozen pies are made exactly like the ones in their pizzerias, and you\u2019ll get no argument from me on that.\u00a0\u00a0 If you’ve been paying attention to previous posts, you\u2019ll know that HRI is one of my very favorite frozen pies, hands down. \u00a0The individual sized, btw, can be prepared in either a conventional or microwave oven.<\/p>\n

They aren\u2019t distributed nationwide, but you can order online<\/a>, and have them shipped directly to you.\u00a0 I recommend that you do.\u00a0 Frequently.<\/p>\n

By the way? If you\u2019re paying attention to the whole \u201cGMO\u201d thing, Home Run Inn passes the test as not being a user or affiliate of GMO ingredients, according to the droid app \u201cBuycott<\/a>\u201d.<\/p>\n

Uncooked pie:<\/p>\n
