1. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. Lightly coat with fat free olive oil spray. Then sauté the shallots and garlic until tender, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add sliced mushrooms. Sauté until all their juices have been given off (5-7 minutes).
2. Add the white wine and cook for a minute or two until it evaporates. Then add thyme and soy sauce and simmer 3 more minutes. Stir in the lemon juice and remove from the heat.
3. Divide mushrooms into 4 stemmed martini glasses. Garnish each one with finely grated manchego (just a thin layer for a sprinkle of flavor).
4. Serve with whole wheat crackers. We liked Whole Wheat Triscuits.
