Potato Baked Pizza

By sassy47

Ingredients

• 2 Russet Potatoes
• 3-4 tablespoons of marinara sauce for each potato
• 3 tablespoons of shredded mozzarella for each potato
• 4 thin slices of pepperoni for each potato
• salt and pepper and olive oil

Preparation

Step 1

bake potatoes in the microwave: Scrub the potatoes and pierce them with a fork in several places, then place on a microwave-safe plate and microwave on high for five minutes. Flip the potatoes and microwave for another three to five minutes. If they’re not soft enough, continue microwaving, one minute at a time, until ready.
Once the potatoes are ready, let cool for 1-2 minutes, then cut in half lengthwise. Use a fork to fluff the potato flesh, then season with salt and pepper and lightly drizzle with olive oil. Spread 3-4 tablespoons of marinara sauce on each potato, then top with about 3 tablespoons of shredded mozzarella and 4 thin slices of pepperoni. Bake on a foil-lined baking sheet, in a 400 degree F oven, until the cheese is melted and the pepperoni is crisp, 15-20 minutes.
