Meatball Sandwich

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


When I make meatball sandwiches I make sure they are are stuffed full of tender meatballs, dripping in sauce and topped with melty cheese. In other words, I like ‘em messy. What you see pictured above is best eaten with a knife and fork – seriously, don’t even try to pick it up and eat it like a normal sandwich unless you like your shirt splattered with tomato sauce. Trust me, a knife and fork is the best way to go.

Normally I make meatball sandwiches with ground beef, but this time I switched things up and used ground lamb with some Parmesan cheese, fresh herbs, minced onion and some garlic powder. The meatballs are first browned in a hot pan then finished off in the sauce. Oh, and have you seen those take and bake baguettes at the grocery store? One baguette is the perfect size for two meatball sandwiches – just bake it off, cut out some of the middle, then toast it quickly under the broiler. Pile the meatballs in and top with sauce and mozzarella cheese. Slice it in half and it’s enough for two very hungry people.
