Cook the jumbo pasta shells according to package instructions until al dente; drain and set aside.

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and sauté the chopped onion until translucent.

Add minced garlic, mushrooms, and spinach; cook until the spinach is wilted and mushrooms are tender.

In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, grated parmesan cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, prepared béchamel sauce, nutmeg, oregano, basil, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper; mix until smooth.

Stuff each cooked pasta shell with the cheese mixture.

Spread a layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of a baking dish.

Arrange the stuffed shells in the baking dish, seam side up, and pour remaining marinara sauce over the shells.

Sprinkle additional mozzarella and grated parmesan cheese on top of the shells.

Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes.

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

Let cool for 5 minutes before serving; garnish with fresh basil.
