Potatoes are amazing on pizza, and that’s that. Period. Mic drop. Boom.

I remember the first time I ever had a pizza that featured potatoes. That was more than 20 years ago. It was made at a competition at Pizza Expo that was called “Pizza Festiva.” That was the precursor to what we all now know and love as the International Pizza Challenge. This particular pie was made by Tony Palombino. And it rocked my notion of what pizza could be. Though non-traditional, it hit all the right spots. Ever since then, I’ve seen a proliferation of pizzas across the country that utilize the humble potato in some way, shape or form. Here are some potato pizza recipes that will take your menu to new heights. Enjoy!
