Notes

  • Want your sandwich super cheesy? Add an extra layer of cheese over the garlic butter, melt in the oven and then top with meatballs, sauce and more cheese.
  • Don't make it too saucy. Use enough sauce to cover the meatballs but not so much that the bread gets soggy.
  • Having a party? These sandwiches are great for a crowd like game day. You can cut the sandwiches in half for extra servings or increase the ingredients for more sandwiches.
