Every family has that one recipe that makes everyone come together, and in my family, it’s the homemade meatball sub. It’s not just a meal; it’s an event that brings laughter, stories, and of course, a whole lot of deliciousness to the table.
- 1 lb ground beef,
- 1/4 cup bread crumbs,
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan,
- 1/4 cup finely chopped parsley,
- 1 egg,
- 2 cloves garlic, minced,
- 1 tsp salt,
- 1/2 tsp black pepper,
- 1 jar marinara sauce,
- 4 sub rolls,
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese,
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, bread crumbs, Parmesan, parsley, egg, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined – be careful not to overmix.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Shape the meat mixture into 1-inch balls and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until browned and cooked through.
While the meatballs are baking, warm the marinara sauce in a large pan over medium heat. Add the baked meatballs to the sauce and gently simmer for 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Slice the sub rolls open and distribute the meatballs and sauce evenly among them. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese.
Place the assembled subs on a baking sheet and broil on high until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 3-5 minutes. Watch carefully to avoid burning. Serve immediately and enjoy!
