Ingredients

  • 9 meatballs Store bought or see recipe in notes
  • 3 hoagie rolls cut into 3s
  • 9 slices fresh mozzarella
  • 9 slices provolone cheese
  • 1/2 cup marinara sauce store bought or see recipe in notes
  • 1/4 cup pesto refrigerated tastes best!

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. 

  2. Lay bun bottoms in a casserole dish. Place in the oven and bake for 5 minutes, or until lightly toasted. This helps prevent sogginess. While they cook, smear 1 heaping tsp. of pesto on the inside of the bun tops.

  3. Remove bun bottoms from oven. Lay 1 slice fresh mozzarella on the bottom of each, then put a meatball on, a spoonful of marinara sauce, and a slide of provolone cheese. Put the tops on and smoosh the meatball down a little.

  4. Place in the oven for 5-8 minutes, or until cheese is melted and buns are golden brown. 


  5. Serve immediately.
