Pleasing Potato Pizza

(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Pizza/flatbread

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. bacon strips, chopped
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup chopped sweet red pepper
  • 2 lbs. potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-in. cubes
  • 1 tube refrigerated pizza crust
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella
  • Minced fresh chives and sour cream

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350. In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until partially cooked but not crisp, stirring occasionally. Add onion and pepper; cook and stir until bacon is crisp. Drain well.

  2. Place potatoes and water to cover in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cook, uncovered, until tender, 10-15 minutes.

  3. Meanwhile, unroll and press pizza crust onto an ungreased 14-in. pizza pan; prick several times with a fork. Bake until lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Increase oven heat to 375.

  4. Drain potatoes; return to pan. Mash potatoes, gradually adding milk and salt. Spread over crust. Top with bacon mixture and cheeses.

  5. Bake pizza until cheese is melted, 15-20 minutes. Serve with chives and sour cream.
