I got this from another group I thought it sounded wonderful! What a different pie for Thanksgiving than just the standard favorites!

  • Fabulous recipe. I wish I had thought of it. And it has been awhile since I had added olives ( I like green with pimentos) to my cream cheese sandwiches.

    Okay, how do I find out who submitted this recipe? I want to remember them, so I can get more good ideas like this.
