No rolling pin? Press the dough out with your fingertips instead. It keeps more air in the crust.

Notes
Swap the toppings for whatever vegetables you have lying around: mushrooms, zucchini, spinach or olives all work. It will probably taste just as amazing!
Short on time? Make the dough the day before and let it rise in the fridge overnight. It gets even more flavorful. Take it out 30 minutes before shaping.
