Spray a pie plate with nonstick spray. Lay potato slices on bottom of the pan, overlapping slightly to form the crust. Spray with nonstick spray.

Bake at 400 degrees F 20-30 minutes or until potatoes are cooked and lightly browned.

Combine tomatoes, mushrooms, onion, and seasonings.

When potato crust is ready, spread with mushroom mixture. Top with olives then cheese.
