DIY Par-Baked Pizza Crust for Easy Weeknight Meals

Some nights, I'm way too tired to cook, but I also can't justify dropping $$$ on takeout.   That's why I started keeping these par-baked pizza crusts in the freezer.  Ready to go whenever I need it. just adding sauce, cheese, and whatever toppings I've got lying around. Cheap, easy, and satisfying! Pizza Dough Recipe: 3 TBSP Sugar 1 & 1/2 tsp active dry yeast  2 cups warm water (not hot) 5 to 6 cups flour 2 tsp salt 3 TBSP oil (any kind) This video covers how to prepare the dough by hand and with a mixer; the process is similar for both.   In a large bowl, add sugar, yeast, and water. I use cold tap water from my sink and microwave it for 45 to 50 seconds and that gets it to the perfect temperature. Let this sit for 10 to 15 minutes to activate the yeast. Mix in 4 cups of flour to start, then mix in the salt & oil. Add the last cup or two of flour in batches until your dough starts to pull away from the bowl. Add extra flour as needed to achieve the desired consistency. Knead for 5 minutes, divide into four pieces, and place in oiled containers. Cover and refrigerate for 24-48 hours.   Remove the dough from the containers and shape it into doughballs. Let this sit to come to room temperature. Then, roll it into the desired shape on a well-floured surface and prick it well with a fork to prevent bubbles from forming. Par-bake at 400 degrees for 4 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely before wrapping in plastic wrap and freezing. When ready to assemble the pizza, remove the prepared crust from the freezer, add desired toppings, and bake at 400 degrees for 12 to 14 minutes. What topping would you add?
