How to Make Potato Crust Vegetable Pizza

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Finely shred 2 lbs potatoes and 1/2 medium onion. Place in a bowl of cold water for 10 minutes.
  3. Drain potatoes and onion thoroughly, pressing out excess moisture with a clean kitchen towel.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the drained potato mixture, 3 large eggs, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, and 1 teaspoon salt. Mix well.
  5. Press the potato mixture into a well-greased 15 x 10 x 1 inch baking pan.
  6. Bake for 15 minutes.
  7. Brush the crust with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  8. Bake for another 10 minutes.
  9. Place under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
  10. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine 2 medium zucchini (diced), 1 medium yellow squash (diced), 1 bell pepper (diced), 1/2 red onion (diced), and 2 cloves garlic (minced).
  11. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat.
  12. Cook the vegetables in batches (about 2 cups at a time), until crisp-tender. This will take about 8-10 minutes total.
  13. Spread 4 ounces of goat cheese evenly over the golden potato crust.
  14. Top with the cooked vegetables and 1 cup of sliced tomatoes.
