I really wanted to name these sandwiches “Meatball Boats”, so I did…I have no idea why I thought of that. Maybe it is because I sit here and research recipes daily and I see so many names for so many of the same recipes. For example: Meatball Hoagies, Meatball Subs, Meatball Sandwiches, Meatball Heros, Meatball […]
