Thank you for ingredients that I like...I hope to be entering this time (last time I didn't have anybody around to eat some of those ingredients, and I don't waste food on purpose).
Just for clarification, do the potatoes have to be actual real ones or can they be out of a box (potato flakes) or frozen (ore ida hash browns or fries)?
Tim has a good point.
Can frozen french fries be used, boxed pizza dough. And how about bacon/sausage ground? or is that whole ham.

My thoughts are this.
Ham is Ham nothing else. Spam is out because it is an ingredient that can be drawn again.
Potatoes as long as you show a round freshly dug out of the bag potato to start with and your process of slicing, dehydrating and stuffing in into a box then rehydrating and using in your recipe. Otherwise it is what ever you can make with a whole potato.
Pizza Crust. I envision these as store bought usually 2 or 3 to a pack. Deb has already ok'd the use of fresh pizza dough.
People this is an Iron Chef it is not ment to be easy. But it is ment to be fun. It is ment to make you think outside of the box but you have to play with the toys that you where given. Not try to substitute for something easier.
Hope I clarified some things from my point of view. Keep in mind I just woke up and have to go to work again tonight and I never wake up in a good mood.
