Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and red bell pepper, cooking until softened, about 4-5 minutes.
Stir in the zucchini and cook for an additional 3 minutes. Then add the baby spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Layer the cooked vegetables evenly in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the crumbled turkey sausage over the vegetables.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage and vegetables. Top with the shredded cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped parsley.
Slice into 6 portions and serve warm. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
