Bowtie Pasta with Creamy Mushroom Sauce

I just made this (modified from Cooking Light) and everyone in my family loved it. Pretty quick too.

Ingredients
0.5-1 pound uncooked farfalle (bow tie pasta) - I used 3/4 a box
1 Tbsp butter
1 8oz pkg baby portabello mushroom, sliced
1/2 8 oz pkg sliced button mushrooms
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tsp salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup dry white wine
2/3 cup whipping cream
1/4 c shredded parmesan or romano cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley


Preparation
1. Cook pasta and drain.
2. While pasta is cooking, melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper; cook 12 minutes or until liquid evaporates and mushrooms are tender, stirring occasionally.
3. Add wine; cook 2 minutes or until liquid evaporates, stirring occasionally.
4. Remove from heat. Add the cooked pasta, whipping cream, cheese, and parsley, tossing gently to coat
