Then spread cheese mixture over this. Curl cabbage leaves over filling, leaving center of pie uncovered. Spoon tomato sauce over top of pie.

Bake in preheated 300 degree oven for 20-30 minutes or until filling is set. Remove from oven and drain any excess liquid. Let pie set for about 5 minutes, cut into 12 wedges for serving.
