Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef

  • ½ cup chopped onion

  • ½ cup chopped green pepper

  • ½ cup crushed butter-flavored crackers

  • 1 egg

  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 teaspoon chopped garlic

  • 1 teaspoon seasoned salt

  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 1 (26.5 ounce) can spaghetti sauce

  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • ⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 8 dinner rolls, split

Directions

  1. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Combine ground beef, onion, green pepper, crackers, and egg in a large bowl. Season with Worcestershire sauce, garlic, seasoned salt, and pepper; mix well. Form mixture into 8 meatballs. Place meatballs in a 9x13 inch baking dish.

  3. Bake meatballs in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Pour the spaghetti sauce into a large saucepan; bring to a simmer over low heat. Stir baked meatballs into the simmering sauce. Do not turn oven off. Simmer sauce until meatballs are fully cooked, about 20 minutes.

  4. Place one meatball, a sprinkle of mozzarella, a sprinkle of Parmesan, and a bit of sauce between each roll. Place sandwiches in hot oven; bake until cheeses melt, about 7 minutes.
