KITTENCAL'S MEATBALL SANDWICH

Kittencal's Meatball Sandwich image

This is the perfect sandwich for football weekends, to save some time you can bake the meatballs up to a day ahead --- I use my recipe #136292 for this but your own favorite pasta sauce will do fine, if desired you can make 20 mini meatballs instead of larger ones :) --- also see my recipe #69173

Ingredients

1 French baguette (or use a long submarine bun)
1/3 cup soft butter
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
black pepper (to taste)
1 (14 ounce) jar favorite pasta or 1 (14 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
6 slices mozzarella cheese (or to taste)
1 lb ground beef
1/4 cup milk
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 tablespoon fresh minced garlic or 1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 egg, slightly beaten
2 teaspoons season salt
1/2-3/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
1/3 cup breadcrumbs (more if needed)

Steps:

For the meatballs; in a large bowl mix all ingredients together using clean hands (adding in a small amount more breadcrumbs only if needed to hold the mixture together).
Shape into 15 meatballs then place on a baking sheet.
Bake at 350°F for about 25 minutes or until the meatballs are completely cooked through.
Meanwhile using a serrated knife slice the baguette in half lenghwise and remove some of the bread from the inside to make a "pocket" to hold the meatballs inches.
In a small bowl mix the soft butter with garlic powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt, spread over the inside slices of both breads, then sprinkle with black pepper to taste.
Place the bread inside the oven the last 4-5 minutes of the meatball baking time and bake until the bread is lightly toasted.
In a medium saucepan warm the pasta sauce over medium heat.
When the meatballs are cooked add them into the sauce and toss to coat.
Spoon the sauce and meatballs over one slice of toasted baguette bread, then top with mozzarella cheese slices.
Top with the other half of baguette slice.
Cut into servings.
