MEATBALL SUBS

You can make a homemade marinara sauce for these, or you can take the short cut method like I do and use a jar of your favorite pizza sauce. Top with some mozzarella and parmesan with fries on the side! Enjoy!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Ground beef
  • 1/2 Onion, diced
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 Tbsp Minced Garlic
  • 2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 Tbsp Ketchup
  • 1/2 cup Bread crumbs
  • 2 Tbsp Partially dried basil (or fresh basil is great too)
  • 1/2 tsp Red pepper flakes
  • 1 tsp Italian Seasoning
  • 1 tsp Pepper
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 28 oz Jar of your favorite pizza sauce
  • 1 cup Mozzarella cheese (for topping)
  • 1/2 cup Shredded Parmesan (for topping)
  • Hoagie Rolls (However many you need)

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees
  2. In a large bowl, mix together all of the ingredients except the pizza sauce and cheese. (don't over mix, it makes the meat tough)
  3. Spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray. Roll the meat into 1 inch size balls.
  4. Bake in the oven at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.
  5. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, heat up the pizza sauce and add the meatballs to it when they are ready.
  6. Finally, assemble the subs. I like to put Parmesan on first, then the meatballs, then the mozzarella. Place back in the oven for a few minutes to melt the cheese and toast the bread.
    Enjoy!
