Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook gluten-free lasagna noodles according to package instructions, then drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until the onion is soft.
Add the diced red bell pepper, sliced zucchini, and mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 7 minutes.
Stir in the fresh spinach, and cook until wilted. Season the vegetable mixture with salt and black pepper. Remove from heat.
In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, and beaten egg. Mix until smooth.
Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce on the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Place three cooked lasagna noodles over the sauce. Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the noodles, followed by half of the vegetable mixture, and then 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Repeat the layers with another cup of marinara sauce, three noodles, remaining ricotta mixture, remaining vegetables, and another cup of mozzarella cheese.
Top with the last three noodles, spread remaining marinara sauce over the noodles, and sprinkle the top with the remaining mozzarella cheese and chopped fresh basil.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake an additional 20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
