RECIPE — What On Earth Is This, A Sad Excuse For A Cobbler?

Potato Pizza Recipe:

Ingredients:

• 2 cups instant mashed potato flakes
• 1 (8 ounce) package shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
• 1 (3 ounce) jar real bacon bits
• 1 bunch green onions, chopped

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2. Prepare instant mashed potatoes according to package directions. Stir in half of the Cheddar cheese, bacon bits, and green onions.
3. Cut the pizza crust dough in half, and spread into the bottom of two 8-inch round pans. Bake for 4 minutes in the preheated oven, until about halfway done.
4. Spoon the potato mixture over each crust. Sprinkle remaining Cheddar cheese over the top.
5. Bake for an additional 5 minutes in the preheated oven, until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted.
6. Let the pizza cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Top with sour cream to taste.

Wine Pairing: This rich and savory potato pizza would pair wonderfully with a glass of Chardonnay. I recommend trying the 2018 Kistler Vineyards Chardonnay from Sonoma Mountain, California. Its creamy texture and hints of citrus would complement the cheesy and bacon flavors of the pizza beautifully. Enjoy!
