Classic Meatball Sub

✓ USDA-verified nutrition data

Ingredients

• 4 Beef meatballs
• 1 Hoagie roll
• 1/2 cup Marinara
• 1/3 cup Mozzarella
• 1 tbsp Basil

Steps

1. Heat the oven broiler to high. Pour the marinara into a medium saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
2. Add the meatballs to the sauce, spooning it over them. Simmer 15 minutes, turning once, until they're heated through and the sauce has thickened slightly and clings to them.
3. Split the hoagie roll lengthwise, keeping a hinge, and scoop out a little of the soft interior so the meatballs sit inside instead of on top.
4. Nestle the meatballs into the roll with a generous spoonful of sauce, then blanket them with the mozzarella.
5. Set the sub on a sheet pan and broil 2-3 minutes, watching closely, until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and browned in spots.
6. Scatter the fresh basil over the top and let it rest 1 minute before serving — the cheese is molten.
