Ingredient Notes
Potatoes – I used small russet potatoes for a smaller bite. You can use any potato you have on hand, but for this recipe, russets work best. Olive Oil – Substitute sunflower, safflower or avocado oil. Pizza Sauce – Use your favorite or try my recipe for homemade pizza sauce! Cheese – I used mozzarella cheese, shredded. You can use different types of cheeses you like, such as Monterey Jack Cheese, Emmental, Parmesan, etc. Pepperoni – Diced. You can substitute for your favorite toppings! If looking for a vegetarian option, try mushrooms, peppers, olives, etc.
