Papa Murphy's: Kramer from Seinfeld was onto something

Do you remember the episode of Seinfeld where Kramer had the brilliant idea of opening a restaurant where people had to cook their own food? Well, as silly as that sounds, there's a relatively new company with basically the same concept as a business model.   I believe it is a profitable one, however, because it is soooo good. The dough is fresh, the toppings are packed on. That's right, if you haven't gone to a Papa Murphy's to pick up a pizza, you won't wait for them to bake it, but you will have to take the pizza home then bake it yourself.

Set oven to 425 degrees and 20 minutes later, take it out of the oven and wait 5 savory minutes.  Our favorite right now is the Mediterranean Chicken.  We get the large, and yes, I'm a convert from just all meat and a few standard veggies on pizza to trying these crazy, hippy-dippy new fandangled pizzas and I won't go back.  I'll be more adventurous from now on!

Visit Papa Murphy's and try it!  We usually get two larges for our family and we have enough slices left over for a few lunches the following couple of days, all for under 20 bucks.  I'm a big fan of Little Ceasar's, too, but Papa Murphy's has the edge in flavor, variety and quality of ingredients.  You just can't go wrong, and there's nothing better than heating your home with the smell of pizza wafting from the kitchen.

They have normal and thin crust, but my whole take on paper thin crust pizza is pretty logical -- why not just order toppings on cheese if you don't like dough?  It makes no sense to me -- kind of like Kramer's idea, but who knew that something so crazy could taste so good.  I can't wait to try the stuff crust...

Incidentally, I am not paid to endorse any products, there are some companies that would probably prefer I didn't mention them, but if the good folks are Papa Murphy's would like to send me a few special coupons, I won't turn them down.  :-)
