Meatballs

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Meatballs

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Form and Bake

    Form the mixture into meatballs, about 1.5 inches in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Marinara

    While the meatballs are baking, heat up your favorite marinara sauce in a saucepan over medium heat.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Subs

    Once the meatballs are done, place them in a hoagie bun, cover with marinara sauce, and top with shredded mozzarella cheese.

  5. 5

    Melt the Cheese

    Place the assembled subs under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
