Share:
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Italian meatballs
- 3 cups tomato sauce
- 2 large loaves of Italian bread
- 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese
- 1 pound mozzarella
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450f and set oven rack to middle. Heat meatballs and sauce in a pot until the meatballs are warmed all the way through.
- Grate 1 pound of mozzarella cheese.
- Slice 2 large loaves of Italian bread and place on a sheet pan. Evenly distribute 2 cups of sauce onto inside of the 2 loaves.
- Layer the meatballs onto the bread and top with the grated mozzarella. Evenly distribute the grated parmesan cheese on top of the mozzarella.
- Bake the meatball heroes/subs until the cheese is bubbly and the bread is toasty (about 10 minutes). Remove from oven and cut in half. Recipe makes four 8" long heroes. Enjoy!
Notes
- Recipe uses 2 large loaves of Italian bread (about a 16" long loaf)
- Each loaf will yield two 7-8" long meatball sandwiches.
- Good quality homemade sauce and meatballs will produce best results.
- Whole milk block mozzarella is recommended.
- Heat the sauce and meatballs prior to layering them on the bread so that the interior of the meatball is hot after the short baking time.
- Serve the meatball heroes with more grated parmesan cheese.
- Serve with extra sauce on the side for anyone who desires more or likes to dip.
