Man Fare: Meatball Subs!

What meat-eating man wouldn't like a broiled cheese-melty, sauce dripping two hander meatball sandwich? The best part is that the described man can make it himself!  Enjoy!

Step 1: Ingredients

Sauce**
3 cans of crushed tomatoes
2 cloves of garlic minced
1 tsp of dried basil (fresh is better but too pricey for me).
 1 tbsp oil
1 tsp of dried oregano
1 tbsp onion powder
1 tsp salt

**You could just buy spaghetti sauce but it's not the same for me. Plus there's no HFCS sneaking into your food.

Meatballs*
1 lb lean ground beef
1 egg
1/4 c Italian style breadcrumbs
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp salt

*Should make 12 - 18 meatballs depending on size. Mine are the size of a ping pong ball.

Lots of mozzarella cheese!
1 baguette or 2 depends on how many you're feeding.

I'm someone who has a hard time cooking and i think even I could follow these instructions, thank you

[zurichko]

Thanks for the nice reply! I used to write instruction manuals at my old job so I take writing instructions very seriously, even with the quirky remarks.

my daughter invited me over for meatball sandwichs one evening, her husband is a pretty good cook so I was expecting something like what you made, unfortunately it was my daughter doing the "cooking".. a bag of frozen meatballs heated in a canned sauce in the crockpot.. at least this atempt of hers was edible.....

[zurichko]

It's the thought that counts right? :)

[zurichko]

Slavery was abolished some time ago...but they're pretty easy to make. Thanks for the compliments. Try it.

I concur.

That's sexist! Women love meatball subs too!

[zurichko]

No need to get huffy, it's a freaking sandwich. I'm the woman who made them and yes I love meatball subs too. I'm trying to teach those who can't cook (like my husband) through simple instructions. I'm not trying to make a statement.

[AngryRedhead]

I'm all for meatball subs and people learning to cook, but it still stands that women love meatball subs, too. Why limit your audience to men only? ;-)

All this talk of food has got me hungry...

[zurichko]

Come over, I'm making spicy chicken tostadas. No boys allowed - LOL.
