Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Place 1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese and cream cheese in a microwave-safe bowl and heat until melted, about 1 1/2 minutes. Stir well. Add almond flour, salt, oregano, garlic powder, and black pepper. Use your hands to combine dough. Once combined, add beaten egg and stir until well incorporated.
- Spray 2 large pieces of parchment paper with non-stick spray. Place dough on one piece of parchment paper and cover with the second piece. Using your hands or a rolling pin, flatten pizza dough to a 10-inch round. Remove top parchment paper and place bottom piece of parchment paper with flattened pizza dough onto a baking sheet. Pierce all of the pizza dough with a fork to prevent the dough from rising.

Tips:
- For the best results, use a food processor to evenly chop the tomatoes, onions, and peppers.
- Use fresh ingredients whenever possible. This will give your salsa pizza the best flavor.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the vegetables by hand. Just be sure to chop them finely so that they cook evenly.
- You can use any type of cheese you like on your salsa pizza. A good melting cheese, such as mozzarella or cheddar, will work well.
- If you want a crispy crust, be sure to preheat your oven to the highest temperature possible before baking the pizza.
- Keep an eye on the pizza while it's baking. You don't want to overcook it, or the crust will become dry and tough.
Conclusion:
Salsa pizza is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. It's a great way to use up leftover salsa, and it's also a fun and creative way to serve pizza. Whether you're making it for a party or just for a weeknight dinner, salsa pizza is sure to be a hit.
