Cook the pasta according to package directions, but do not add salt. While pasta is cooking, in a large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer set on high speed, beat ricotta, pepper, and nutmeg until smooth. Set aside. In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium high heat. Add the mushrooms; saute until tender, about 4 minutes. Add spaghetti sauce; cook until heated through, stirring occasionally, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat. Drain pasta in a colander; divide among serving plates. Spoon mushrooms sauce over each portion. Place a spoonful of ricotta mixture in center of each. Sprinkle with parmesan and basil and serve.
