Notes
- If you want to use my homemade meatballs in this recipe, visit the link provided. You can prepare them up to 5 days before making this recipe. To save on time, you can also use fully-cooked Italian meatballs from the freezer section at the grocery store. No need to thaw or heat them up before starting this recipe, as they’ll heat up as they cook in the pizza dough.
- You can assemble the meatball sub bites ahead of time in the muffin tin, cover them tightly with a piece of foil, and place them in the fridge for up to 8 hours before baking them. This is perfect if you’re serving them at a party.
