When cool enough to handle, squeeze dry. Turn spinach out onto a cutting surface and chop fine. In a large bowl, combine spinach, ricotta, egg yolks, 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Mix with a wooden spoon until well blended. In a greased 13x9 inch baking dish, alternately layer spinach pasta with spinach - ricotta mixture and mozzarella, making a total four layers. Cover with foil and bake 25 minutes. Uncover and bake 10 minutes longer, or until tomato sauce and remaining Parmesan cheese on the side.
