Meatball Boats

What can I say about these sub sandwiches, besides delicious. Oh yeah I can tell you they are easy.

A meatball sub is something I would never order at a sandwich place. I don't usually speak in absolutes, like always or never, but I can confidently tell you there are a variety of other subs that I would rather order than meatball. Don't get me wrong I love meatballs, but in a sub it not one of my top choices. 

You can make your own meatballs for these subs or you can use premade, just as long as you cook them first. I choose to make these subs easy and used frozen meatballs. 

Meatball Boats

Ingredients:

• 24 frozen meatballs
• 2 cups marinara sauce
• 8 mini hoagie or sub rolls
• 8 slices mozzarella cheese
• 4 ounces parmesan cheese

Directions:

1. Cook the meatballs according to the package directions.
2. Adjust oven temp to 350º F.
3. If your sub rolls are not already cut, cut an oval into the top of the roll leaving about 1/2 inch at both ends and the sides and do not cut all the way down to the bottom. Use a knife to hallow out the top of the roll.
4. Place the rolls onto a baking sheet and place 1 slice of cheese into the middle of each roll.
5. Bake for 8 minutes.
6. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and spread 2 tablespoons of marinara sauce over the cheese. Place 3 meatballs on top of the sauce. Top the meatballs with desired amount of marinara sauce and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
7. Bake for 6-8 minutes or until the cheese is melted. 

Enjoy!!!
