Greek Cushaw Pie
In this dish the squash combines with the mushrooms for a reallymeaty texture. Cubed Lamb would be an excellent addition for
meat-eaters. With the Feta and Kalamata Olives this is a wholesome
and hearty dish with lots of spices and plenty of flavor.
It can be prepared like Spanakopita, putting the filling
between layers of philo or it can be prepared as a casserole.

1 large pkg fresh button mushrooms
1/3 C pitted Kalamata olives
2 T olive oil
