INSTRUCTIONS
Quick and easy to make for company, this is a good dish but a little fat. In large skillet, heat oil over medium heat; cook onion and garlic for about 5 minutes or until softened. Add mushrooms, thyme and nutmeg; cook, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until mushrooms release their juices. Sprinkle with flour; cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in milk; cook, stirring, for 12 minutes or until thickened. Meanwhile, in large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta until tender but firm. Drain and toss with sauce, ham, 1/3 cup of the parsley, salt and pepper. Transfer to platter; garnish with remaining parsley.
