A recipe perfect for sharing. 

Lately, I have been inviting more people over to the house for supper. I travel a lot so if we don't invite friends over every now and then it seems like it can be weeks before I see our local friends. Plus, a lot of them are the Boy's bachelor guys friends and I know they will appreciate a home cooked meal.

Awhile ago I saw a Meatball Sub Recipe on Pinterest and thought that would be a great hearty meal.

I'm going to repost the recipe here, as the website it was on made it really hard to read and I have a few changes to it.

Ingredients

1 loaf of Italian bread, cut into 1-inch slices
8 oz. package of cream cheese, softened (I used the 1/3 fat)
1/2 cup mayo
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 1/2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese
1 lb. pkg of frozen meatballs thawed (this is what the original recipe called for but I think I would increase this to maybe a 1.5 lbs.)
28 oz. jar pasta sauce
1 cup of water

Directions

1. Arrange bread slices in an ungreased 13"x9" backing pan. In a sperate bowl combine cream cheese, mayo and seasoning. Then spread over the bread slices.

2. Sprinkle 1 cups of cheese over the bread and filling mixture.

3. Mix together the meatballs, pasta sauce and water together. Spoon over cheese.

4. Sprinkle remaining 1 1/2 cups of cheese on top.

5. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes at 350 degrees.

6. Enjoy!
