Meatball Sub Casserole

Ingredients

  • 1 (16 ounce) package frozen garlic bread
  • 2 (24 ounce) jars spaghetti sauce
  • 40 Italian-style frozen meatballs
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  2. Heat garlic bread with spread side up on a baking sheet in the preheated oven until warm and golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  3. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bring spaghetti sauce to a boil in a large pot. Place frozen meatballs into sauce. Reduce heat to low and simmer until meatballs are heated through, about 20 minutes.
  4. Tear garlic bread into bite-size pieces and spread into bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish. Pour spaghetti sauce and meatballs over garlic bread, coating bread with sauce and distributing meatballs evenly. Spread mozzarella cheese over top in a layer, followed by a layer of Parmesan cheese.
  5. Bake casserole until cheese has melted, 20 to 25 minutes.

Tip

Undercook the pasta by 2–3 minutes so it finishes in the oven without becoming mushy.
