PLEASING POTATO PIZZA3 large potatoes, peeled and cubed 1 tube (10 ounces) refrigerated pizza crust 1/4 cup milk 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 pound sliced bacon, diced 1 large onion, chopped 1/2 cup chopped sweet red pepper 1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese 1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese Sour cream (optional, for serving) Place potatoes in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 20-25 minutes or until very tender. Meanwhile, unroll the pizza crust onto an ungreased 14-inch pizza pan; flatten dough and build up edges slightly. Prick dough several times with a fork. Bake at 350 degrees F for 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack. Drain potatoes and transfer to a mixing bowl. Mash with milk and salt until smooth. Spread over crust. In a skillet, partially cook the bacon over medium heat. Add onion and red pepper; cook until bacon is crisp and vegetables are tender. Sprinkle over potatoes. Top with cheeses. Bake at 375 degrees F for 20 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serve with sour cream if desired. Source: The Market Fresh Cookbook by Taste of Home Editors
