Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, and sauté until softened, about 3 minutes.
Add the bell peppers, zucchini, and mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Stir in the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.
In a mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, egg, and chopped spinach. Mix until well combined.
Spread a thin layer of the tomato-vegetable sauce on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Place a layer of gluten-free lasagne sheets over the sauce, followed by a layer of the ricotta mixture, a sprinkle of mozzarella, and a layer of sauce. Repeat the layering process, finishing with a layer of sauce and the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan on top.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil (be sure the foil doesn't touch the cheese) and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
Let the lasagne rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh basil, if desired, and serve warm.
