Italian Meatball Subs

These are so easy and delish!

Homemade Meatballs

1 pound of ground beef
1/4 cup bread crumbs
1 egg, beaten
1 clove garlic, minced
Dash of Italian seasoning

Mix the above ingredients.  Roll the mixture into your preferred size meatballs.  Place the meatballs on a broiler pan and bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees.  Makes about 20 meatballs.  I bet these would be great with a bit of parmesan cheese mixed in.  I'm thinking that substituting shallots for the garlic would be nice, too.

Sandwich Construction

4 Hoagie Rolls
Meatballs
8 ounce can tomato sauce
Mozzarella cheese

Slice the hoagie rolls open and stuff them with the meatballs.  Then, pour the tomato sauce over the meatballs and cover liberally with cheese.  I rolled our sandwiches in foil and baked them for about 10 minutes.  You could also put them under the broiler.  (I tend to avoid our broiler due to my bad habit of burning/catching things on fire.)  To each their own!  FYI, these freeze well.  If frozen, microwave them for 4 minutes at 50% power.  Enjoy!
