Cheesey Meatball Subs

I don't have much of a story behind this recipe. As usual, I was just looking for a healthy, simple, budget friendly recipe. To make the original recipe healthier, I used turkey instead of beef meatballs and 2% cheese instead of regular. For a side dish I made super easy (and healthy) coleslaw. The ingredients are for 4 servings/sandwiches.

Ingredients:

1 cup Spaghetti Sauce
2 Tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
3/4 lb frozen, fully cooked meatballs (turkey, chicken, or beef)
4 Crusty Sandwich Rolls, split
3/4 cup shredded Mozzarella Cheese  (2% or regular)


Steps:


COMBINE first 4 ingredients in large skillet. Bring to boil on medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
SIMMER on medium heat 8 min. or until meatballs are heated through, stirring occasionally.
SPOON into rolls; top with mozzarella. 
If you want your sub roll toasted, after you top with cheese, throw the subs in the oven and broil them for a few minutes - that's what we did.

Note: The picture is very pretty and basically exactly how the sub turned out...until you try to eat it. They are very messy. Messy but good :-)

Sorry guys, but I don't have the nutritional information for this recipe. Using turkey/chicken meatballs, 2% cheese and portion control still makes this a healthy and filling meal.
