I've made these meatballs for years to use in this sandwich or to toss into spaghetti sauce. The big sub is a great conversation piece and tasty treat at football parties. - Colleen Edelsward, Woodinville, Washington Ingredients:
2 eggs, lightly beaten |
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs |
1/2 cup grated romano or parmesan cheese |
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley |
1 envelope spaghetti sauce mix, divided |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1-1/2 pounds ground beef |
1/2 pound ground pork |
1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce |
1/2 cup water |
1 loaf (1 pound) french bread |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine the eggs, bread crumbs, cheese, parsley, 2 tablespoons spaghetti sauce mix and salt. Crumble beef and pork over mixture and mix well. Shape into 20-24 meatballs. 2. In a large skillet, cook meatballs until no longer pink; drain. Stir in the tomato sauce, water and remaining spaghetti sauce mix. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 25 minutes. 3. Meanwhile, warm the bread. Cut a thin slice off the top; hollow out bottom of loaf, leaving a 3/8-in. shell (discard removed bread or save for another use). Spoon meatballs and sauce into bread shell; replace top. Slice, serve warm. Yield: 8 servings. |
