Instructions

  1. Oven Method: Preheat oven to 350°F, placing a sheet pan inside for a crispier crust.

  2. Place pizza on the hot sheet pan or foil on the rack, then bake for 10 minutes, or longer for extra crispness, until warm and cheese is melted; a toaster oven takes 3-4 minutes.

  3. Stovetop Method: Heat a large skillet over medium, then add the pizza slice and cook uncovered for a couple of minutes.

  4. Add a few drops of water to the side of the pan, cover, and cook for about 3 minutes until cheese melts and pizza is heated through.

  5. Microwave Method: Place pizza on a plate in the microwave with a mug of water next to it to aid even heating.

  6. Heat on high for 30-45 seconds, or until cheese melts and pizza is warm; expect less crispness.
