Meatball Sandwich Casserole
1/3 C. chopped scallions
1/4 C. Italian seasoned bread crumbs
3 T. grated parmesan cheese
1 lb. ground beef
16 oz. Italian-style bread, cut into 1-inch cubes
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1/2 C. mayonnaise
1 tsp. Italian seasoning
1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
2 C. shredded mozzarella cheese
3 C. spaghetti sauce
1 C. water
2 cloves garlic, minced
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Mix together onions, bread crumbs, cheese and ground beef. Roll into 1 inch
diameter balls, and place in a baking pan. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or
until beef is no longer pink. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
Arrange the bread cubes in a single layer in an ungreased 9 x 13-inch baking
dish. Mix together the cream cheese, mayonnaise, Italian seasoning and black
pepper until smooth. Spread this mixture over each bread cube. Sprinkle with
1/2 cup of the grated mozzarella cheese.
In a large bowl, mix together spaghetti sauce, water, and garlic. Gently
stir in meatballs. Pour over the bread and cheese mixture in the baking pan.
Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes, or until heated through.
Makes 5 - 7 servings.
