Hi Joan,

 RH> but suffice it to say, she isn't the best, nor is my dad a "creative"
 RH> eater. Mom woud sometimes buy the boxed cheese pizza mixes, Appian Way
 RH> is the name brand that sticks out, and do them for a Sunday night
 RH> supper.  The only thing she would do extra is to put some cheddar

 JM>  Oy! At least she used Appian Way, which to my
 JM>  mind has the best seasoned sauce of any of the

It was probably the only kind available in our small town.

 JM>  commercial kits. But the whole point of that
 JM>  box is to let you add your own fresh mozzarella
 JM>  instead of being given dried cheeses, a la Chef
 JM>  Boy-Ar-Dee. Sorry your mother missed that "serving
 JM>  suggestion". My family loved the Appian Way pizzas,

The facts she was raising 5 kids, Dad not being much of anything but a
meat and potatoes eater, not much money for "fancy" groceries, etc all
contributed toward the plain pizza.  We did know what pizza was, albeit
not the greatest pizza.

 JM>  the one bought for only dough mix and sauce,
 JM>  adding our own Mozzarella, pepperoni, occasional
 JM>  veggies and extra oregano. I note we assembled them
 JM>  as "dough, sauce, toppings, cheese, herbs". This
 JM>  incorporated the toppings like meats, veggies, etc.
 JM>  into the baked pizza, but isn't as pretty as when
 JM>  the cheese is added before the toppings, as most
 JM>  commercial pizzerias do. Any ideas if the toppings
 JM>  on a pizza are better under or over the cheese layer?

We do it with the toppings under the cheese; it lets the cheese brown up
a bit for extra flavor.

 JM>  If you can even get Appian Way where you are, count
 JM>  yourself lucky. I started shopping a local store

We've not looked for it as we make our own.

 JM>  going there for other reasons, but I am frustrated
 JM>  in buying a commercial product I like.
 JM>  Now if I want to make a pizza without going to
 JM>  scratch methods, I have a few choices. I can buy
 JM>  a Chef Boy-Ar-Dee packet for TWO pizzas. I can buy

Want me to look for Appian Way & send a care package if I find it?
