Steps:

Cook pasta to al dente stage. Drain well and return to covered pot (add a touch of olive oil if preferred)
In a large nonstick skillet, add olive oil and saute garlic, mushrooms, Italian seasoning and black pepper - cook over medium-high heat. Cook until mushrooms have released their juices and are golden brown. Add a few tsp. of broth if necessary to keep from drying out.
Add broth and tomatoes to the skillet and reduce heat to medium. Cover and cook approx. 2-3 minutes or until tomatoes are rehydrated. Add the spinach and cook uncovered, stirring often until spinach is wilted.
Add the cooked pasta, olives, walnuts and toss well to mix. Add additional broth if needed or pasta water.
Remove pasta from heat and toss in the parmesan cheese. Serve with chopped parsley to garnish.
