In an Italian household, making homemade Meatball Boats is a rite of passage. I learned how to make my own from my mother-in-law. Because her recipe calls for a whole meat sauce, I make meatballs in my slow cooker when I’m in a hurry throughout the week. It’s not a quick supper, but it’s simple, with few ingredients, and the meatballs can feed a crowd if you make a lot of them, as I do.
Ingredients:
1 lb. ground beef
1 large egg
⅓ C breadcrumbs
¼ C Parmesan cheese
1 tbsp. Minced garlic
1 Tbsp fresh chopped parsley
Salt and pepper to taste
1 Tbsp olive oil
2 C marinara sauce
8 mini hoagie rolls
12 slices asiago cheese
How To Make Meatball Boats:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Prep baking pan with nonstick spray.
Add the ground beef, egg, breadcrumbs, garlic, parmesan, garlic, and parsley to a bowl.
Using your hands work the ingredients together.
Add salt and pepper.
With the ice cream scoop start to form your meatballs.
Set aside.
