Ingredients for Crust

3/4 cup plain whole milk Greek yogurt

1 (20 ounce) bag shredded potatoes

1 egg, large

1 teaspoon olive oil

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

Cracked ground pepper to taste

Ingredients for Toppings

1/2 cup ricotta cheese

1 cup Italian cheese blend, shredded

1/2 can fire roasted diced tomatoes, drained

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Preparation

01Strain the yogurt in a cheesecloth lined strainer over a large bowl for about 3 hours.

02Once strained, preheat the oven to 425 F.

03Line a strainer with paper towels and add in the potatoes so the paper towels absorb excess moisture. Ensure the potatoes are dry.

04In a large bowl beat the egg, add in the potatoes, strained yogurt, 1 teaspoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper. Mix well.

05Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Evenly distribute the potato mixture with a fork, forming a circle. The thickness of the crust should be no more than 1/2 an inch. Bake for 30-35 minutes until the crust has browned.

06Remove from oven and use the back of a spoon to spread the ricotta cheese as the base. Top it off with the cheese blend, fire roasted tomatoes and 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder.

07Bake for another 10-15 minutes until the cheese has melted. Remove from oven, garnish as desired and serve.
