This recipe is everything your meatball sub dreams are made of! You can get as creative as you want with it with toppings, but I’d suggest keeping it simple as it is simply awesome! Also, instead of just plain bread, you can use cheesy garlic toast in this recipe. That’s what I did and man oh man was it ever good!
The same thing happened to me! Our neighbor’s kids came running over when I left my window open and the amazing smell few out our windows! We always have company with this meal.
Ingredients
1 loaf Italian bread, cut into 1-inch thick slices
1 (8 oz.) package Philadelphia cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup Hellman’s mayonnaise
1 tsp. Italian seasoning
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 cups shredded Kraft mozzarella cheese, divided
1-lb. pkg. fully cooked frozen meatballs, thawed
1 (28 oz.) jar Barilla pasta sauce
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
Arrange bread slices in a single layer in an ungreased 9 x 13 baking dish. Fill in any gabs with pieces of bread. Note: I recommend toasting the bread first. You can place the dish into the oven (on the broiler setting) and toast both sides. It should only take a minute or two.
In a bowl, combine cream cheese, mayonnaise, and seasonings.
Spread mixture over bread slices.
Sprinkle with 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese.
Gently mix together spaghetti sauce and meatballs.
Spoon over cheese.
Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
Bake uncovered for 30-35 minutes.
