Meatball Subs

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound of ground turkey
  • ½ pound of ground sausage 
  • ½ onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 teaspoon of Italian Seasoning 
  • 1 egg
  • ⅓ cup of Italian breadcrumbs
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon of pepper
  • 1 pound of mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1 jar marinara sauce

Directions:

  • Preheat the oven to 400° degrees.
  • Cook chopped onions, a pinch of salt and pepper and Italian seasoning over medium heat until onions are translucent (about 5 mins).
  • Then add minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Take off heat and add to a large bowl to cool. 
  • Once the above mixture is cool, add ground turkey, sausage, egg, breadcrumbs, salt and pepper. Mix to combine. (I use my clean hand 🙂 
  • Form into meatballs, I normally use a cookie scoop. 
  • Bake on a sheet pan for 20 mins. 
  • Add marinara in a 9×13 pan and add meatballs once they are done cooking. Add shredded cheese on top and cook in the oven for an additional 20-25 mins. You can cover it or leave it uncovered if you prefer cheese to get a little brown. 
  • Enjoy as is or make sandwiches with some good rolls. 🙂
