Baked Potato Pizza

(pizza prior to final bake)


Ingredients:
1 large russet potato
1 cup light sour cream
1/4 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper

3/4 pound bacon, cooked and chopped into bits
1 Pillsbury thin pizza crust
4 green onion stalks, chopped
2-3 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Directions:
Skin the potato and cut it into four chunks, boil for 30 minutes. Drain, put back in the pan with heat on low, add sour cream, buttermilk, garlic, salt and pepper. Mash until well whipped with no chunks remaining.

Spray baking sheet and roll pizza crust out. Bake as instructed, but for 8 minutes for extra crisp. Take crust out and spread mashed potatoes thinly on pizza crust. Sprinkle bacon, green onions and cheddar cheese on top. Add salt and pepper. Bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, until brown.

Use hot sauce if you prefer, but not necessary as the pizza is delicious without it!
