As we celebrate 40 years of Kowalski's, we're looking back at some of our most popular and acclaimed Signature recipes.

Spring 2018 marked the last official, exhaustive and comprehensive ranking of Minnesota's frozen pizzas by City Pages (now racketmn.com). When Kowalski's Signature Frozen Pizza snagged the No. 1 spot, we weren't shocked, but a huge spike in sales certainly took us by surprise. Like everything we put our name on, we developed our original pizza line with one thing in mind: making it the best. We worked for months with a Minnesota pizza maker to perfect the recipes and select the best toppings and cheeses. Featuring a perfectly crisp, thin crust, these pizzas are available in five traditional flavors:

  • Cheese
  • Pepperoni
  • Sausage & Pepperoni
  • Supreme (pepperoni, sausage, black olives and onions)
  • Margherita

"This is it. This is the one. Sharp Cheddar is married with mellow mozzarella and Parmesan, making for layers of flavor and richness. You'll see actual tomato seeds peeking through the vibrant sauce, which has enough acidity to balance out the fat. We ate Kowalski's entry dead last on our first day of marathon eating, when we didn't yet know how to pace ourselves properly. Overstuffed bordering on diabetic shock as we were, we still went back for seconds. It's that outstanding."

"This is like the pizza emoji. Perfection."
