In a large pot, filled with water, cook the farfalle according to package directions. Make sure not to overcook the pasta. Drain, but do not rinse. Rinsing pasta is a big no no in Italian cooking.

In a large skillet heat the olive oil over a medium heat. Add the onion, mushrooms and garlic. Cook and stir for 3 minutes. You will want the mushrooms to be nearly tender. Stir in the spinach, thyme, kosher salt and pepper. Cook for another minute. 

Stir in the cooked farfalle and toss gently to mix. Transfer to a pasta bowl and sprinkle with the shredded Parmesan cheese. Serves 4 people.
