Baked Potato Pizza

I like baked potatoes and I like pizza.  So, why couldn't we combine the two??  I would tweak this recipe by using the pizza crusts from Caputo's and skip the pizza crust mix.

1 6.5oz. package pizza crust mix
3 medium unpeeled potatoes, baked and cooled
1 tbsp. butter or margarine, melted
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp. dried Italian dressing
1 C. sour cream
6 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
3 green onions, chopped
1 1/2 C. shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 C. shredded cheddar cheese

Prepare crust according to package directions.  Press dough into a lightly greased 14 inch pizza pan; build up edges slightly.  Bake at 400 degrees  for 5-6 minutes or until crust is firm and begins to brown.

Cut potatoes in 1/2 inch cubes.  In a bowl, combine butter, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.  Add potatoes and toss.  Spread sour cream over crust; top with potato mixture, bacon, onions, and cheeses.  Bake at 400 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes or until cheese is slightly browned.  Let stand 5 minutes before cutting.
