"I don't know how many times I've heard my family say, 'I want extra cheese or I don't want those green things on my pizza.' The beauty of the new DIGIORNO DESIGN A PIZZA kit is I can cater to my entire family's food demands without having to cook multiple pizzas. I simply pick up a DESIGN A PIZZA kit, select the toppings I know my family will enjoy and bake it up in 20 minutes. At the end of the day, dinner is served and everyone's happy, including me," Christy Denney, food blogger and creator of The Girl Who Ate Everything.
