Pre-made Supermarket pizza bases?

Just wondering if they are any good?

I know making your own is much better, but I fancy making a pizza tomorrow round at the gf's and she has a big lack of space. Got a load of artichoke, olives and chorizo knocking about. Pizza seems like an ideal.

Sainsburys garlic bread pizzas make good bases. Don't be inclined to buy their plain bases though; they are gruesomely dry to say the least.

Ah nice one. Might go down this route instead of plain.

why don tyou buy a bag of premade dough mix

Her kitchen is somewhere I try and avoid actually doing too much. Real lack of work surface space, though I might go for it on a whim.

Reporting back.

Bought a couple of Sainsburys tomato and garlic pizza breads as recommended above. Whacked mozzarella, grilled artichoke, caramelized onions, green olives and ham on them. Used a little passatta on the base and put in the oven on full whack for 10 minutes. They tasted amazing and the gf was very impressed.

Will be doing these again, though may step it up a level and make the dough myself.
