Spicy Italian Sub


A toasted Italian garlic bread, topped with meatballs, sauce, and pepper jack cheese. You can add onions, peppers, mushrooms, black olives, anything you desire, but it is delicious just like this.


1 loaf Italian bread, sliced horizontally (like for one large sandwich)
1 1/2 cups spaghetti or pizza sauce
16 fully-cooked meatballs
2 cups  shredded pepper jack cheese
1 cup  shredded mozzarella cheese
4 Tablespoons butter, softened
1 small clove garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
Parmesan cheese, optional

Mix garlic, salt, and butter; spread over the two bread halves. Lay bread, crust side down, on a cookie sheet and broil for a couple minutes until top is toasted.

 Heat sauce and meatballs in saucepan on stove. Reduce heat to low and add pepper jack cheese, stirring to melt.. Lay meatballs and sauce over bottom half of bread. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top. Broil (bottom half of bread only) for a few minutes, until top is toasted.

 Sprinkle Parmesan cheese, if using. Put top of sandwich on (the other half of the bread) and cut into servings.
