Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper. Set the mixture aside.
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the diced red bell pepper, green bell pepper, zucchini, and onion. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables begin to soften.
Stir the chopped spinach into the skillet and cook for another 2 minutes, or until wilted. Remove the vegetable mixture from the heat and set aside.
Pour the egg mixture into another non-stick skillet and cook over medium-low heat. Gently stir with a spatula, cooking until the eggs are just set but still moist. Remove from heat.
On the prepared baking sheet, unroll the crescent roll dough into a large rectangle. Press the seams together to seal, creating a continuous sheet of dough.
Place the scrambled eggs down the center of the dough lengthwise, leaving about 3 inches of dough on each side. Top the eggs with the cooked vegetable mixture, spreading evenly. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses on top.
Using a sharp knife, cut 1-inch wide strips along both sides of the dough (perpendicular to the filling), creating a 'fringe' effect.
Starting at one end, fold the strips over the filling, alternating sides to create a braided pattern. Tuck the ends under the braid to seal.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the crescent dough is golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, slice, and serve warm.
