Time 1h20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 large baking potatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 head cauliflower
1/2 cup sliced pepperoni
1 cup Muir Glen™ organic pizza sauce (from 15-oz can)
3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (3 oz)
Shredded lettuce, if desired

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400°F. Scrub potatoes; rub skins with oil. Pierce potatoes several times with fork to allow steam to escape. Bake on top oven rack 40 minutes or until tender.
  • Meanwhile, cook cauliflower in large pot of boiling water until very soft and tender; drain. Reserve 12 slices pepperoni; chop remaining pepperoni. Set aside.
  • When potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut thin slice off top of each potato. Gently scoop out potato pulp, leaving 1/4-inch shell; place pulp in large bowl. Add cooked cauliflower, chopped pepperoni, pizza sauce and 1/2 cup of the cheese. Beat with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Spoon mixture into potato shells.
  • Place potatoes on ungreased cookie sheet. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cheese. Top each with 3 slices reserved pepperoni.
  • Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until hot and cheese is bubbly. Garnish with lettuce.
