Pizza and Idaho Potatoes sound like a match made in heaven to the Idaho Potato Commission–and customers.

Pizza is one of America’s most popular foods, and Idaho Potatoes are a menu regular favored by millions. Why not team them up for spectacular potato-centric pizza toppings?

More than a few savvy operators have already recognized the versatility of Idaho Potatoes in topping, “sauce,” and crust recipes. In morning (Breakfast Pizza), noon (Potato Rosemary Flatbreads), and night (Idaho Potato and Sonoma Foie Gras Pizza), versatile Idaho Potatoes give pizza toppings texture, substance and earthy flavor.

Instead of sauce, Garlic Mashed Idaho Potato Pizza uses a layer of creamy, aromatic spuds under diced tomato, green onions, and feta cheese.

Mashed Idaho Potatoes can be blended into a tender base for Idaho Potato Pizza Margherita Style.

The Idaho Potato Commission has recipes for over a dozen innovative Idaho Potato pizzas using russets, red skins, fingerlings, and other varieties.
