1. Remove dough from refrigerator and allow to rest at room temperature 10 to 15 minutes. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray 2 or 3 baking sheets with vegetable cooking spray.

2. In a medium bowl, combine crushed tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Set aside.

3. Divide the dough into 6 pieces. Lightly flour a work surface. Flatten and stretch each pizza with your hands into an irregular shape. Use your finger to break a hole into the bottom center of the dough; this will be the gmouthh of the pizza.

4. Each baking sheet can hold 2 pizzas. When ready to bake, place stretched pizzas on prepared sheets. Spread about 2 Tbsp. sauce on each piece of dough, leaving a 1.4-inch border around the edge and around the mouth. Top with 1.4 cup shredded mozzarella. Using the mouth as a guide, place slices of sausage or pepperoni topped with sliced olives on the pizza as eyeballs (one, two, or three . itfs a monster, after all). Noses and hair could be slices of sausage, peppers, mushrooms, or onions.

5. Bake until cheese is melted and dough is golden brown, 9 to 11 minutes. Cool 5 minutes before serving.
