Meatball Sandwich

Ingredients

  • 4 homemade meatballs
  • 1/2 cup homemade marinara
  • 1 medium hearty roll, soft bread won't cut it!
  • 1 slice provolone

Directions

  1. Set your oven to broil at 400 degrees. Put the meatballs and marinara sauce in a microwave-safe dish and heat them.
  2. Cut your roll lengthwise. Spoon the meatballs onto the roll, then add any marinara left in the dish over the top.
  3. Lay the cheese over the sandwich. I like to cut the slice in half so it fits better over a long, narrow roll, the way sub shop cheese does.
  4. Set the sandwich open-faced on a cookie sheet, then slide it under the broiler. Check that the oven rack leaves a few inches between the sandwich and the heating element. Broil until the cheese has melted and the roll’s edges are browned and crisp. Grab napkins and dig in.
