Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add zucchini, eggplant, bell pepper, mushrooms, and garlic. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until softened. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a small mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, the egg, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth.
Lightly grease four individual ramekins or oven-safe dishes with oil or non-stick spray.
Spread 2 tablespoons of marinara sauce on the bottom of each ramekin.
Break lasagna noodles, if necessary, to fit the ramekins. Place one lasagna sheet on top of the marinara sauce in each dish.
Add a layer of cooked vegetables over the noodle. Spread 2 tablespoons of the ricotta mixture over the vegetables, then top with 2 tablespoons of marinara sauce.
Repeat layering two more times (noodle, vegetables, ricotta, marinara), finishing with a lasagna noodle on top.
Spread 3 tablespoons of marinara sauce on the final noodle layer. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese evenly over the top of each ramekin.
Place ramekins on a baking sheet to catch any drips. Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
Let the lasagnas cool for 5 minutes before serving. Carefully run a knife around the edges if needed to ensure a clean release from the ramekins.
