Pleasing Potato Pizza (Seattle Post-Intelligencer, April 10, 2007)

3 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)

Lightly boil potatoes until very tender, about 20-25 minutes.

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 for 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack.

Drain potatoes, then 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 for 20 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serve with sour cream if desired.
