Mike's Easy Meatball Subs
- 6 Fresh 6" Sub Rolls
- 1 26 oz Bag Lean Frozen Meatballs
- 2 can 24 oz Hunts Garlic & Herb Spaghetti Sauce
- 1 can 14.5 oz Stewed Tomatoes with oregano, garlic & basil
- 1 can 6 oz Black Olives halved
- 1/3 cup Chopped Celery
- 1/2 cup Diced White Onions
- 1/4 cup Fresh Parsley chopped
- 1 tsp Each: Onion Powder - Garlic Powder - Italian Seasoning - Dried Basil
- 1 tbsp Sugar
- 2 cup Shreaded Motzerella Cheese
- 1 cup Shreaded Parmesan Cheese
- 1 Banana Peppers Or Sport Peppers garnish
- 1/4 tsp Baking Soda to reduce acidity - more may be needed
- Place everything in a crock pot except for bread & cheeses and let cook for 4 hours on high and 6 to 7 hours on medium.
- If cooking stove top, place frozen meatballs in oven and bake as per manufacturers directions.
- Usually 25 minutes at 350.
- Feel free to lightly season your meatballs any way you'd like before putting them in the oven.
- Add everything else except for bread, peppers and cheeses in a large pot and simmer for 25 minutes.
- Add fully baked meatballs and simmer 25 additional minutes.
- If your sauce tastes a bit too acidic due to the tomatoes, add 1/4 tsp Baking Soda to your simmering pot.
- Your sauce will foam up but no worries.
- Stir in, simmer again, then taste and add 1/4 tsp more if acidic taste persists.
- Repeat if necessary.
- Toast your rolls but be careful not to fully split your bread thru the middle.
- Place meatballs leave whole or cut in half and sauce on fresh sub bread.
- Top with Motzerella and Parmesean Cheese, Provolone works well as well and Banana Peppers or Sport Peppers.
- Serve with a side bottle of Tabasco.
- Enjoy!
