Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the gluten-free lasagna noodles according to package instructions, drain, and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon as it cooks, about 7 to 10 minutes.
Drain any excess fat from the pan, then stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Reduce heat to low and let the sauce simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
In a medium bowl, mix the ricotta cheese with the egg and 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
To assemble the lasagna, spread a thin layer of the meat sauce at the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Place three lasagna noodles over the sauce, then spread half of the ricotta mixture over the noodles.
Sprinkle one-third of the shredded mozzarella cheese over the ricotta layer.
Repeat the layer: meat sauce, noodles, remaining ricotta mixture, and another third of mozzarella cheese.
Finish with the remaining noodles, the last of the meat sauce, and top with the final third of mozzarella cheese and remaining Parmesan cheese.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven.
Remove the foil and continue to bake for an additional 15 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
