Are you ready to elevate your pizza game with a delightful twist? Introducing Potato Pizzas, a creative and satisfying dish that combines the comfort of traditional pizza with the wholesome goodness of potatoes. Perfect for those who are looking for a gluten-free alternative or simply want to try something new, these potato-based pizzas are not only delicious but also incredibly versatile.

Imagine crispy, golden-brown potato slices serving as the base for your favorite pizza toppings. The process begins with baking the potatoes to perfection, creating a sturdy foundation that holds all the flavors you love. While the potatoes are in the oven, you can whip up a rich and savory pizza sauce, sautéing onions and garlic to build a fragrant base. The addition of fresh tomatoes and your choice of herbs will have your kitchen smelling heavenly.

What makes this recipe truly special is the opportunity for creativity. Whether you prefer classic toppings like pepperoni and cheese or want to explore unique combinations like zucchini, olives, and bell peppers, the choice is yours! Once topped, these potato pizzas go back into the oven for a final bake, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.

Serve them hot, garnished with fresh basil and a sprinkle of soy parmesan for an extra touch of flavor. These Potato Pizzas are not just a meal; they’re an experience that invites you to get creative in the kitchen. So gather your ingredients, unleash your culinary imagination, and enjoy a deliciously fun twist on pizza night!

Directions

  1. Cut into three slices, making the outer two a little wider than the middle one. Take the two outer slices and trim a little bit off the bottom (rounded side) in order to make them lie flat.
  2. Place them on an oiled baking sheet and bake at 350 F for about 40 minutes, until cooked throughout. (I was just making one serving, so I did this in the toaster oven with excellent results.) While the potatoes are cooking, make the pizza sauce: Sauté the onion in a non-stick saucepan until it becomes translucent.
  3. Add the garlic and sauté one minute more.
  4. Pour about 1/3 of the can of tomatoes into the saucepan. Using a blender or hand blender, puree the remaining tomatoes and add them to the pan. (I do this right in the can with a hand blender.)
  5. Add the remaining sauce ingredients, and simmer on low until the potatoes are ready. When the potatoes are done, take them out of the oven, spread each one with sauce, and top with your choice of toppings. (I made one with zucchini-calamata olives-red bell pepper, another with mushrooms-green olives-onions, and another with everything.)
  6. Put them back into the oven and bake for 15-20 more minutes, until the toppings are done to your taste.
  7. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with lots of fresh basil and soy parmesan, if desired. Careful, they will be hot! But once they’re cooled, you can pick them up like regular pizza: Get as creative as you like with the toppings. Enjoy!
