My sister and I often prepare the meals for out busy family of eight. We like recipes that are easy to prepare yet filling. Served with a salad, these sandwiches are satisfying. Ingredients:
4 eggs |
1/2 cup milk |
1 cup grated parmesan cheese |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
2 tablespoons dried parsley flakes |
1-1/2 teaspoons dried basil |
1-1/2 teaspoons dried oregano |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
2 pounds ground beef |
2 cups crushed saltines (about 60 crackers) |
sauce: |
2 cans (15 ounces each) tomato sauce |
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese |
1-1/2 teaspoons dried oregano |
1 teaspoon dried basil |
1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
12 submarine sandwich buns (about 6 inches), split |
sliced mozzarella cheese, optional |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Crumble beef over mixture and sprinkle with cracker crumbs; mix gently. Shape into 1-in. balls. Place in ungreased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pans. Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until meat is no longer pink. Drain on paper towels.
2. In a large saucepan, combine the tomato sauce, Parmesan cheese, oregano, basil, parsley and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat; add meatballs. Reduce heat; add meatballs. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 20 minutes or until heated through. Serve meatballs and sauce on buns. Top with mozzarella cheese if desired. Yield: 12 servings.
