At Eater, we’re all about cooking and trying new recipes, but sometimes you don’t feel like turning on the stove, chopping, or doing dishes. That’s where frozen pizza comes in. As a form, it’s come so far: These days, there are even gourmet pies imported from Italy, a far cry from the cardboard-like versions that once dominated the frozen food aisle. There’s a version for everyone — vegetarian-friendly, gluten-free, meat lovers. Here are some of our go-to’s for when cooking is the last thing you want to do.

Rotisserie chicken is a fast and easy way to add protein to your meal prep routine. According to the National Chicken Council, broiler chicken is the most widely consumed protein in the U.S. You can add chicken to everything from Caesar salads to frozen pizza to get more protein and make your meals more filling. Rotisserie chicken is flavorful due to the constant turning of the meat, which keeps it moist and tender and prevents the chicken from drying out.

Austin pizzeria Via 313 has made a name for its doughy Detroit-style pizza, and this summer, it’s opening a second outpost in the Houston area. Located just a short drive away from the NASA Johnson Space Center, Via 313 will launch its Webster location this August. The grand opening event, slated for August 9, will feature a photo booth, giveaways, and 25 percent of the day’s proceeds going to Target Hunger, a local charity that aims to tackle hunger in the Houston area. The Webster locale will be Via 313’s 20th restaurant in the country and will serve its signature rectangle-shaped pies, including the Ambassador Bridge — a saucy pizza topped with pepperoni, sausage, fresh garlic, and homemade ricotta.
