Homemade meatball subs

Homemade Meatball Subs are one of the best classic sandwiches that you can make at home. The best homemade meatballs smothered in homemade marinara sauce, topped with copious amounts of mozzarella cheese, and then popped under the broiler to melt everything. I have even used this same meatball and sauce and used to top pasta, to all of the fanfare.

Ingredients

▢ 16 frozen meatballs or homemade below

▢ 2 cups pasta sauce or marinara sauce

▢ 4 hoagie rolls

▢ 4 tablespoons garlic butter

▢ 1 cup shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese

Meatballs (or use frozen meatballs if preferred)

▢ 1 pound lean ground beef

▢ 1 egg

▢ ½ cup seasoned bread crumbs

▢ ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning

▢ ½ teaspoon onion powder

▢ salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Prepare meatballs as directed on package or for homemade meatballs, combine all meatball ingredients.
Roll into 1″ balls and place on a parchment lined pan. Bake at 350°F for 20 minutes or until cooked through.
Place cooked meatballs in a saucepan with pasta sauce and simmer covered 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, spread garlic butter inside each roll. Heat broiler and broil rolls until golden, about 3 minutes.
Arrange rolls in a 9×13 baking dish. Place 4 meatballs in each roll and top with a little bit of sauce and cheese.
Broil 2-3 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serve with additional sauce for dipping if desired.

Enjoy!!
