Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, and fat-free cottage cheese until well combined.
Add the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the egg mixture. Whisk again until spices are fully incorporated.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the diced red bell peppers, green bell peppers, onions, and zucchini until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the baby spinach to the skillet and cook for an additional 2 minutes until wilted.
Add the cooked and crumbled turkey sausage to the skillet with the vegetables, stirring to combine. Remove from heat.
Transfer the cooked vegetables and sausage mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables and sausage in the baking dish. Use a spatula to ensure everything is well distributed and submerged in the egg mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the casserole is set and the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the casserole cool for 5 minutes before slicing into 6 equal portions.
Serve warm and enjoy, or store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
