    Uh, could I please place a delivery order Halle?…this recipe looks amazing. Too bad the above pizza pic wasn’t a scratch ‘n sniff option. Yum. I’ll let ya know what my fam thinks of it. Great idea, it would make a great breakfast pizza too. 🙂

    All I can say is that it took a whole lot of control not to eat the whole pie! I dont like tomatoes so I added green peppers, red onions, and broccoli! Thanks for another great recipe Halle!!

    Just made this and it was delish! Only problem I has though was that the middle was a little soggy (not much) and the “slice” of pizza wouldn’t come out whole. Any suggestions on what I did wrong would be greatly appreciated because my 5 year old loved it along with my junk food loving husband! Even with the sogginess in the middle.

      Try making the crust a little thinner next time and be sure to squeeze out all excess water out of the potatoes too.
