Easy Meatball Sub Recipe
"We all know that there are about a million ways to use up some meatballs. For example, meatball pasta never gets old. Another way of cooking pasta with meatballs in one pot is to make a meatball goulash. Very quick and good stuff. However, today, I think I’ve discovered a revolutionarily wonderful way to enjoy more meatballs with this easy meatball sub recipe. Whether you have leftover meatballs or you’ve stored up some frozen meatballs, with a loaf of demi baguette and some cheese, plus a pesto, you are good to go. This is by far the quickest meal I’ve ever come up with. And it’s juicy, flavorful and uber satisfying!"
NotesIf using frozen meatballs, thaw thoroughly before placing them into the baguette.

Ingredients
- 1 demi baguette
- 4-6 slices provolone cheese
- 6 cooked meatballs (I used leftover Swedish meatballs.)
- 3 tablespoons Chipotle Pecan Pesto
- Chopped fresh parsley for garnishing
-
Preheat broiler on high.

Cut baguette lengthwise down from the top, keeping the bottom part connected. Smear 1 tablespoon Chipotle Pecan Pesto inside the baguette, and then line cheese slices inside. Stuff the prepared baguette with meatballs and place the sub on a baking sheet. Broil until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 5 minutes.

Spoon the rest of the pesto over the meatball sub. Sprinkle with chopped parsley. Cut in half and serve!
