MEATBALL SUB CHEESY BREAD

Being a mom, I face myself with a challenge to find a winner dinner almost every day. What is a winner dinner? It’s the meal that everyone is excited to eat. Especially kids! We all have our favorites in the weekly menu routine but even the favorites can become boring. I love to turn classic dishes into fun meals but it has to be easy. If you are like me, you will love the idea I am about to show you!

You know our obsession with cheesy bread and its variations runs deep. We love it and constantly look for more ideas for it. My Easy Cheesy Garlic Bread started it all, then came Philly Cheesesteak Bread and Pizza Bread. Today, I am excited to bring you this super easy and oh so delicious idea for a cheesy garlic bread topped with Italian Style Meatballs, quick pizza or marinara sauce and lots of cheese!

HOW TO MAKE MEATBALL SUB CHEESY BREAD?

• Start by preheating the oven and line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Slice bread in half horizontally. Place both halves inside up on the prepared sheet.
• Mix melted butter with minced garlic and spread over bread halves. Cover bread with aluminum foil and bake for 7 minutes.
• When done, spread 1 cup of pasta sauce over the bread (reserve remaining 1/2 cup), dividing equally. Arrange meatballs over the sauce. Top meatballs with remaining sauce (just over the tops).
• Place cheese slices on top.
• Bake bread for 15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and meatballs heated through. Let bread cool for 10 minutes. Slice and serve immediately.

This idea is pure comfort food taken to a new level. Italian bread toasted up with garlic butter, topped with pasta sauce, meatballs, more pasta sauce and lots of cheese! Baked to a gooey perfection – this dinner idea is bound to be a hit in your home! Dinner time has never been so fun!
