  • Brown the meatballs on all sides.
  • Set aside meatballs and remove excess grease.
  • Return the meatballs to the hot pan, add marinara sauce and simmer for 15 minutes, or until meatballs are cooked through.
  • Cut a long rectangle through the top of the bread loaf and partially unstuff the loaf.
  • Layer the bottom of the loaf with half the mozzarella, cooked meatballs, sauce, then top with the rest of the mozzarella and parmesan.
  • Bake for 25 minutes at 350˚F (180˚C).
  • Enjoy!
