Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a bundt pan or a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray and set it aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the zucchini, red bell pepper, carrot, and garlic. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables soften. Mix in the chopped spinach and cook for an additional 2 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sautéed vegetables, shredded cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Separate the refrigerated biscuit dough into individual biscuits. Cut each biscuit into quarters.
Working in small batches, lightly coat the biscuit dough pieces in the melted butter. Toss the buttered biscuit pieces into the vegetable and cheese mixture, ensuring the pieces are evenly coated and incorporated.
Layer the coated biscuit dough pieces evenly into the prepared bundt pan or baking dish, ensuring they are distributed throughout the pan to form an even loaf structure.
Pour any remaining butter and vegetable mixture over the top of the layered bread. Pat the top gently to ensure it's compact but not overly pressed.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and cooked through. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean.
Allow the monkey bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning it out onto a serving plate.
Serve warm and enjoy this cheesy, veggie-packed pull-apart bread!
