Meatball Sandwich

This yummy meal is super easy and very yummy. Someday I would like to try making it with homemade meatballs, but it's less expensive and a whole lot easier to just use frozen meatballs. (One package of 20 Banquet frozen meatballs in zesty marinara sauce is $2.99. One pound of meat is at least that, plus the rest of the ingredients, plus the marinara sauce.) I know that homemade is healthier, but for an occasional quick-fix, this recipe is pretty darn good. Plus, we only use about half of the meatballs, so I can use the other half for leftovers. Often times I'll grab a can of biscuits and then wrap the extra meatballs in a biscuit, bake it, and serve it with the remaining sauce. Two easy, easy meals.



Meatball Sandwich

Ingredients:
1 pkg Banquet Zesty Marinara Meatballs
4 hamburger buns/sandwich rolls
4 slices cheese (mozzarella or cheddar)
Parmesan Cheese

Directions:
Microwave the frozen meatballs according to package directions. Toast the inside of the bun in the oven for just a minute, just enough to toast it up a bit but not long enough for it to turn brown.  Cut the meatballs in half and place 5-6 on half of each bun, cover other half of bun with marinara sauce. Place cheese on top of meatballs and bake in oven at 350 for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Top with parmesan cheese and serve with a side salad. Enjoy!
