Meatball Sub Sliders

When I find myself with leftovers, I often like to turn them into something a little different so we don’t feel like we’re eating the same exact thing again.  Recently I had leftover meatballs and marina sauce and that’s how these meatball sub sliders were born.  These little sandwiches were so easy to make and they tasted amazing.

If you don’t happen to have any leftover meatballs and marinara, you could use this recipe, which is the one I used for my meatballs and marinara this time.  You could also make these easy baked meatballs and this slow cooker chunky marinara sauce.

As I said, these meatball sub sliders are really easy to make.  They’re really more of a method than a recipe.  You take your ingredients, assemble the sandwiches and boom, you’ve got a delicious meal.  What I think really makes these sandwiches special is the bread.  After slathering the bread with a little butter, it goes under the broiler and then gets a garlicky finish with some cut garlic. DEE-LICIOUS!!
