Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a 2 quart oval baking dish lightly with cooking spray and set aside.
Peel potatoes and cut into ⅛ inch thin slices and place in a large bowl.
In a small skillet, add olive oil and mushrooms and heat on medium for 5-6 minutes to let mushrooms release moisture. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a small pan heat cream, thyme and garlic over low heat until warm but not boiling, and pour over potatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Stir gently to coat.
Spoon a third of the potato and cream mixture into prepared dish and arrange so potatoes are evenly distributed. Add ⅓ of the mushrooms and cover with 2 slices of provolone cheese.
Repeat the process two more times, finishing with mushrooms and cheese. Pour extra cream left in the bowl over top.
Using a spatula, press down to compact layers and then sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
Bake for 45 minutes and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
