Time 40m

Yield 12 mini subs

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 frozen dinner rolls, thawed and risen
6 slices provolone, halved
3/4 cup marinara sauce, plus more for serving
12 frozen Italian meatballs, thawed
1/2 cup sliced deli peppers
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan
Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line the bottom of a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Flatten each roll into a 6-inch round. Onto each flattened roll, add a half slice of provolone, 1 tablespoon of marinara sauce, a meatball and, finally, a slice of the deli peppers.
  • Fold opposite sides of each roll up and over the meatball, pinching them together. Continue folding and pinching the sides together until the meatball and filling are completely encased in the dough. Place seam-side down onto the prepared sheet pan.
  • Mix together the olive oil, Parmesan and red pepper flakes in a small bowl. Brush the top of each roll with the mixture. Bake until golden and crisp, 16 to 18 minutes. Serve with warm marinara on the side.

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound ground beef
½ cup chopped onion
½ cup chopped green pepper
½ cup crushed butter-flavored crackers
1 egg
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon chopped garlic
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (26.5 ounce) can spaghetti sauce
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
8 dinner rolls, split

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
