Ingredients
-
1 lb lean ground beef
-
1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs
-
1 teaspoon salt
-
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
-
1 tablespoon parmesan cheese, grated
-
1 (32 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
-
6 -8 sub rolls (hoagie rolls) or 6 -8 hot dog buns
-
mozzarella cheese (sliced or shredded)
-
2 tablespoons finely chopped onions or 1/4-1/2 teaspoon onion powder
-
1 egg
Instructions
- Place first seven ingredients in large bowl. Mix thoroughly with your hands just until combined. (I wear food prep gloves.) Shape into approximately 30 1-inch balls.
- Bake in an ungreased oblong pan (13x9x2) in a 400°F oven until light brown, 20-25 minutes. OR: microwave meatballs in an ungreased baking dish, 6 minutes on High, turning once. OR: cook over medium heat in frying pan, turning occasionally, until brown, about 20 minutes.
- Place cooked meatballs and spaghetti sauce in crock pot. Cook on low for about 2 hours. If you cook longer, stir every hour or so.
- Place meatballs and sauce in buns/rolls and top with mozzarella cheese.
- Note, I microwave the meatballs to cook them.
- (A friend places the raw meatballs & sauce in the crock-pot and cooks them for 8+ hours on low, but I have never tried this.).
