Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with coconut oil.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until browned, breaking it up into small pieces with a spatula. Drain any excess grease and set the sausage aside.
In the same skillet, add the coconut oil. Once melted, sauté the diced onion and bell pepper for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the shredded zucchini, chopped spinach, and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are tender. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, coconut milk, salt, black pepper, oregano, and thyme until well combined.
Spread the cooked sausage evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Layer the sautéed vegetables on top of the sausage.
Pour the egg mixture over the sausage and vegetables, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the quiche is set in the middle and lightly golden on top.
Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing into squares.
Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
