1. Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add shallots, garlic, mushrooms, and thyme; sauté 7 minutes or until mushrooms are browned. Add spinach; sauté 4 minutes or until liquid almost evaporates. Remove mixture from pan; discard thyme sprig. Wipe pan clean.
