Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In the food processor, attach the shredding blade and shred the carrot and zucchini. Switch to the chopping blade and pulse the red bell pepper and green onions until finely chopped. Place the vegetables in a bowl and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and olive oil until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together until just combined. Avoid overmixing to prevent a dense bread.
Add the shredded carrot, zucchini, chopped bell pepper, green onions, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped parsley to the batter. Gently fold until evenly distributed, ensuring not to overmix.
Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. This bread pairs well with soups, salads, or can be enjoyed on its own as a savory treat!
