Meatball Sub Sandwiches

Meatball Sub Sandwiches made with flavorful homemade meatballs with mozzarella and parmesan cheeses on top of a french roll. Meatball sandwiches are one of my favorite cheat day eats! The meatballs are super simple to make and are first baked in the oven. Then, we will add tomato sauce to the meatballs, toast up the french rolls, add cheese and voila! These meatball subs will be sure to impress you and your guests! Enjoy everyone.
