Line bottom & sides of a 9-inch pie place with potato slices, reserving 8 slices as garnish. In same skillet, sauce onions until golden. Add beef & cook until browned, breaking up with fork as it cooks. Add tomato sauce, cheese & black olives. Mix well. Spoon meat mixture into potato-lined pie shell. Garnish with remaining potato slices. Bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes or until potatoes are soft & edges are lightly browned. Allow pie to stand 5 minutes before serving.
