Main Ingredients

  • 4 rolls Sandwich rolls (cut with one side intact)
  • 12 meatballs Cooked Meatballs (your favorite recipe or frozen, pre-made meatballs) Usually about 4-5 meatballs per sandwich
  • 2 cups Pasta Sauce (homemade or jarred)
  • 1 cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese Can experiment with different cheeses

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.

Cooking

  • Place your frozen cooked meatballs or homemade cooked meatballs in a large pot. Cover them with your pasta sauce.
  • Gently fold the meatballs with the sauce. Heat the mixture on low-medium, stirring occasionally, until the meatballs are heated thoroughly.
  • Fill each roll with as many meatballs as you can fit (usually 4-5, depending on their size and the size of the roll). Top with more pasta sauce from the pot.
  • Place the filled sandwich rolls closely on the baking sheet. Top each sandwich with shredded mozzarella cheese.
  • Bake in the oven until the cheese is melted, hot, and bubbly.

Notes

Serve hot with a simple side salad or potato chips. Extra pasta sauce can be served on the side for dipping. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
