One of the best frozen pizzas I’ve tried!

Frozen pizza is something we rarely consume in our house, I don’t mind frozen pizza at all and grew up eating tons of the stuff. Sean is the one who despises frozen pizza so usually pizza is either ordered for takeout/delivery or enjoyed at a restaurant. Sean will eat homemade pizza or pizza using the Costco Molinaro’s Pizza Crust Kits but never would eat frozen pizza until we tried this Roncadin frozen pizza from Costco that I’m reviewing today! This can be found in the freezer section by the other frozen pizzas and the item number is 1314371.
Taste
This pizza is unique because it’s already cooked in a stove oven and is a product of Italy! The crust is thin in the middle of the pizza and then gets very thick around the edges so if you don’t like a lot of pizza crust you may find this has a little too much. Personally I found the crust delicious, thin in the middle, thick, fluffy and chewy on the edges and and it’s baked to a medium brown color with noticeable leopard charred spots. The toppings are salami, bacon and mushroom. All of which are flavorful and tasty. There’s not a ton of sauce or cheese but I found there was just enough to create a very tasty pizza. Cheese lovers you can always throw on some more cheese. You can also add any extra toppings you might like to have such as bell peppers, onions, spinach, olives, etc.
Cost
I paid $14.99 Canadian for the box that comes with three Costco Roncadin Salami, Bacon & Mushroom Pizzas. Two Roncadin pizzas was enough for Sean and I to have dinner with a side salad.
Convenience
I baked the pizza from the frozen state in my oven at 395 Fahrenheit for about 14 minutes and it turned out great. Each pizza is individually wrapped and sealed. This makes a great lunch or dinner and the leftovers taste fine the next day.
Nutrition
Not the healthiest choice but so worth it! One half of the pizza is 560 calories, 22 grams of fat, 1530 mg of sodium, 25 grams of protein, five grams of fibre, 67 grams of carbohydrates and six grams of sugar. Obviously not healthy for you and loaded with sodium and carbs.
This Costco Roncadin Salami, Bacon & Mushroom pizza from Italy gets two thumbs up and is one of the best frozen pizzas from Costco we’ve tried. We will definitely be repurchasing this! Next time I’ll buy two boxes so we have enough for three meals.

I like it too but it looks like it is discontinued. 🙁
Anyone know where else you can buy it?
Yes our Costco doesn’t have it anymore let me know if you find out who else carries it.
Ugh it’s my favorite. I’m so sad, I hope they at least bring back the chicken one.
It was nasty the sauce was the worst!!
Thanks for commenting! I still really enjoy it.
I tried this pizza for the first time two days ago. It was a great frozen pizza. The crust is thin, thickens towards the edges, and tastes great. The sauce is slightly sweet, but don’t let that put you off, it doesn’t taste artificially sweet. It has a lovely flavor. I think it’s the best frozen pizza I’ve had. It’s better than the Italian made pizzas in Trader Joe’s, though they’re good too. And it’s better than Red Baron pizzas, which are a great value, but don’t taste as good as these.
I absolutely love this pizza!
OMG the BEST pizza we have ever had and we’re NewYorkers. I pray that my Costco in Myrtle Beach never stops carrying it. I also made 4 of my friends addicted to it also. When I go to Costco, I call my friends and pick up boxes of pizza for them. I have bought as many as 10 boxes on a single shopping trip. Love, love, love it. It’s also the perfect size for two people and so easy to cook.
We have it back at our Costco and love it!
Just tried this pizza tonight. What a massive disappointment. That they decided to include, without warning, some bizarre almost-buffalo-style sauce ruined the entire pie. 1 of 5 stars, would NOT recommend.
Couldn’t find the chicken pizza at local Costco in Vancouver. My kids are living on these and I buy two boxes at a time. What is happening?
Really?! We just bought the chicken & pepper pizza by Roncandin. Love it. Check out that review for the item # and you could call your Costco and see if they have it or will get it in.
I completely agree! Best frozen pizza ever and rivals some takeout pizza.
Trouble is the Edmonton area Costco’s don’t seem to have it anymore, have you noticed this as well in your area? What a bummer
Yes! Have you tried the Grilled Peppers & Chicken one?
I did, although good, it’s no comparison to the bacon mush salami. I’m having severe withdrawals and hoping costco brings it back or that I can find it elsewhere 🙂
