Meatball Sub Casserole is a super easy casserole dish that tastes like a meatball sub but in casserole form. So good and a family favorite!
MEATBALL SUB CASSEROLE
VIDEO INCLUDED BELOW:
This delicious casserole recipe comes from the latest Gooseberry Patch cookbook, 101 Cozy Casseroles. I’ve been in Gooseberry Patch heaven with all the new cookbooks that have been coming out. Each recipe in this cookbook comes with a picture. So if you’re a visual person, this is perfect.
TIPS FOR MAKING MEATBALL SUB CASSEROLE:
- Homemade meatballs can be used in this dish; however, you want them to be fully cooked before adding them to this dish. This is a family friendly meal and using the pre-made meatballs really makes this quick to make.
- I would definitely serve this with a salad. Perhaps a big, green salad full of veggies and maybe topped with my COPYCAT OLIVE GARDEN ITALIAN DRESSING! And for dessert, how about some NO BAKE STRAWBERRY TIRAMISU?
- For a softer casserole, don’t toast the bread first. For a more firm casserole, toast the french bread slices first.
- For a twist, try using garlic Texas toast rather than the Italian bread.
Italian bread
pepper
HOW TO MAKE MEATBALL SUB CASSEROLE:
Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Arrange bread slices in a single layer in an ungreased 9×13 baking dish. Note:After making this a few times (because we love it!) I recommend toasting the bread first.
Just fill in any gaps with smaller bits of bread. I did have a couple slices of bread leftover since my loaf of Italian bread was pretty wide. I used those extra slices to make some garlic bread to serve with this. In a bowl, combine cream cheese, mayonnaise and seasonings. Spread mixture over bread slices.
Gently mix together spaghetti sauce and meatballs. Spoon over cheese.

MEATBALL SUB CASSEROLE
Ingredients
- 1 loaf Italian bread, cut into 1-inch thick slices
- 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tsp Italian Seasoning

Instructions

- Gently mix together spaghetti sauce and meatballs.
- Spoon over cheese.

I don't need the cookbook, but wanted to tell you that the casserole looks fantastic. Our family loves meatballs (especially the little one) and she'd flip over this. Thanks for sharing.
This would be a great book to add to my GB collection. I do a lot of cooking to take to my grandmother who just turned 80 in April. She does little to no cooking for herself so I am always trying to make extra or things that can freeze so she has quick easy meals to reheat.

oh this looks heavenly!
I made your BBQ cups last night.. and my husband ate 6 of them!! I could totally use this book because Im a stay at home mum of 2, with no cooking experience.. and I desperately need some help. This could go a long way in getting my little family on the road to healthy eating!
I think casseroles are a busy mom's best friend, and since I seem to be getting busier by the minute, this book would be perfect.

I love the Gooseberry Patch. Have a few of their books. This casserole looks amazing!
This meatball sub sounds delicious and easy 🙂 The Casserole cookbook would be great…sure there are many fantastic easy quick recipes in there for busy people like me!

Are you kidding me? Who doesn't love a casserole? One of the first things my mom ever taught me to cook was a casserole and I've made it for my loved ones ever since. Not only are casseroles something that I can cook ahead of time, or freeze, but they are one of the best comfort foods when paired with a glass of sweet iced tea. <3
I love casseroles, and making them for my family and friends! This Cozy Casseroles book looks amazing and I can't wait to try out some new recipes : )

I would love to win the Gooseberry Patch cookbook not only did you just post something my husband loves (meatballs) , I'm starting a new job on Monday and this would be a great book for me.

This cookbook would be great for me because it is just my husband & I. We could enjoy leftovers & not have to cook every night.
I would LOVE this cookbook because I don;t have a single one. I love to cook and bake, but cant figure out why I dont own a cookbook yet? lol And I don't have any casserole recipes. Casseroles could save my life, I work 60 hrs a week, go to school full time, and have 2 children 2 & under that keep be veryy busy all week long. Anything I could pop in the oven and continue to work on house things would be greatly appreciated 🙂
This looks delish by the way! I absolutely love meatball subs!

What's not to love about this casserole??? My family would love this…and it's so simple 🙂 And I'm always game for a new cookbook..especially one with family friendly recipes like this!
I would gift this to my son. He recently got married and he has begun texting me "Mom, What should I make for dinner?" They have no cookbooks and are already tired of the meals they know how to make.
Oh my, this recipe sounds sooooo good I can hardly wait for the book. Our family's schedule works really well with casserole suppers and I truly enjoy Gooseberry Patch books so I would love to win this copy.

New mom of two week old twins, have a 7 yr old, 3 yr old, and a 21 month old. I was on bedrest for 4 weeks and my church organized and provided meals for us. The casseroles worked out great. I would use this book to "give back" by helping others in similar situations with the meal train.
i love to make casseroles. they are so easy for midweek dinners.

My daughter made the meatball sub casserole yesterday. It was SOOOO good I ate seconds. I love your cookbooks because the recipes are simple using things already in my pantry and fridge. The directions are easy to follow. We love home style, country cooking. Your cookbooks fill our need for that kind of comfort food. Thanks for these wonderful recipes.
I am a wife and mother of an 8 yr. old and 6 yr. old. I recently went back to work after 8 years of being a stay-at-home mom. Casseroles work great for me because they are easy to put together and allows me to have more family time in the evening. Also, I am a HUGE fan of Gooseberry Patch cookbooks. Would love to win one and try out these great recipes.

I'm an older gal and live alone, so casseroles are great to separate into individual containers and freeze, or also to have on hand in case someone visits unexpected.

I THINK OF FAST, GREAT TASTING FOOD THE MORE I READ ABOUT THIS COOK BOOK.
These recipes look yummy! I can't wait to try some! It would be fun to try them all!
I would love to try the new casserole cookbook. My husband works 3rd shift and coming up with things to feed him before he leaves for work is sometimes work. I like to feed him casseroles because the leftovers–if there are any–are good for him to take to work and reheat. I'm always looking for new recipes. Hope I win. [email protected]
I need help and ideas with cooking for my family. I say I'm a terrible cook, but I think I need straight forward tasty recipes. This book sounds great! 🙂

This looks so good! My son and husband would love this! I would love to win the cookbook! I just bought 101 Homestyle Favorites and love it!
My husband and I have a busy life. I would love a cookbook with quick and easy recipes to make meals faster. I love Gooseberry Patch! 🙂 Teri

Quick and easy and good, that's what my family needs for our busy days!
This would be a god send to add to my cookbook collection. I am always trying to find new recipes! My boys would love the meatball sub casserole for sure!
Owning our own business My husband being a Vietnam Veteran became disabled due to complications from when he was there so this cookbook would be "AWESOME" Supper I could make and he could put in oven before I come home or make the recipe for us and "POOF" we have supper done!
Our fourteen-year-old football player will LOVE the meatball sub casserole. I'll probably have to double the recipe for a meal with him and his always hungry friends this fall! I would love to win a copy of this new casserole recipe book. With plenty of taste-testers around now-a-days, I need new ideas!
We call it hotdish instead of casseroles. It would be useful because we eat a lot of casseroles/hotdishes and I am always looking for new ideas.
I would love to have another one of your cookbooks! I am the head librarian for three libraries so making casseroles would be a super easy dish for me to make when I get home and not so time consuming. Thank you for all your "free" recipes and your wonderful website. Love it!
Wow, just found your website and I'm impressed! I love the Meatball Sub casserole recipe and can't wait to try it. Then I found the Coconut Cream Poke cake and that sounds delicious. I've been a fan of Gooseberry for years and already follow them on Facebook and Pinterest. I would love to win the cookbook too! Nothing better than finding a great recipe that gets used for years and passed down through generations!

This cookbook would be a wonderful thing to have for me because we have Family Dinner Night every other week and I host it once a month. If everyone comes, there are 15 people here. Casseroles are the easiest and most economical way to go. Also, everyone loves a good casserole.

I Love to cook and casseroles are great family dinners. You can make them ahead of time and freee them for a later fast night meal. I would love to get a copy of the book. I have a 27 year old who will be moving out soon and he can follow a recipe pretty good. To be able to make a casserole for himself would be an accomplishment. Thanks for considering me.

Our family just loves casseroles and I love how easy they are to put together for any occasion! 😀 And, easy to pack up to take to a neighbor or friend who needs some help and cheering up. Plus, they taste good too! 😉 {And anything from Gooseberry Patch is good in my opinion}

i would love to win this cookbook, as i have been a fan of yours for years. Moreover, i have lupus, but still have to work 40/week. Having "gourmet" tastebuds, it is difficult to have enough energy left to actually cook. These easy, tasty recipes are exactly what i need.
i would be truly grateful!

I made this tonight with veggie "meatballs" and it was delicious!
I would love to win this because my husband and I are getting into an eating rut. Tired of the same menus week after week. Would love some new ideas and one dish entrees. Casseroles are great!

My husband is a firefighter so I love having a lot of casserole recipes on hand. I send them in with him so I know that they are all eating well while they are at the firehouse. They can sometimes have calls that run long past dinner time and will grab fast food since it is quicker than making a whole meal. When I send casseroles in, they come back and just throw them in the oven.
I love this recipe! And I would love to win the casserole cookbook you are giving away, they make supper easy & go along way with our family of seven! Thanks for the free recipes too!
Two days after seeing this recipe on your website, I bought the ingredients and made the casserole. OH..MY..GOSH! My son, who loves meatball subs, was in 7th heaven! This casserole was so, so good and tasted…yes…JUST LIKE MEATBALL SUBS! MORE PLEASE!
OMGoodness…taking this recipe with me when I go to visit my inlaws. My father inlaw will only love me more. lol YUMMERS!!!
Fall and winter coming up here soon in Michigan…. What a great book to have with new and different things to fix !!!!! The Meatball Sub Casserole sounds terrific, and I would love to fix it this next week, since its been on the cool side !!!! What an awesome book to win :):):):)
I made the meatball casserole and my husband said it was the best meal I have ever made. I wonder if in place of the cream cheese/mayo combo, I could just use ricotta cheese and Italian seasoning.
I made your Meatball Sub Casserole for dinner tonight and it was AWESOME and super simple! I will definitely make this again!
This was SO good!!! Everyone loved it!
I'm so happy I found this recipe on your website! Your step by step directions with pictures really make it easy to know what to. I had orginally seen it on Pinterest from a different website but was a little confused by what they had written. I searched on Pinterest and found your recipe instead. Can't wait to try this out tonight 🙂
Tried this tonight…VERY yummy. We will tweak a few things for his taste but it was still very scrumptious and filling.
I tried the meatball sub casserole tonight and it was delish! My only issue was even after I toasted the bread beforehand, the bread still came out soggy. I may just cook the meatballs and sauce separately and then spoon it on top of toasted bread with the spread, otherwise just use noodles. Either way, yum!
Can't wait to try this one out. I would love to win a cookbook full of one dish meals. With our hectic schedule, I am always looking for quick and easy recipes for my family. – [email protected]
My family loves anything with meatballs and red sauce…dying to try this recipe and I LOVE Gooseberry cookbooks. Our budget is tight right now so to win this book would be amazing! [email protected]
Count me in for the give away ….gotta have this cook book! [email protected]
I really liked your meatball sub casserole. Just for fun, I tried something different. I put cooked spaghetti in the bottom of the pan instead of bread. I also made meatballs out of Italian sausage with some breadcrumbs.(I fried them first until they were no longer pink) Then followed your recipe. This is a keeper!
Made this last night. Two words: ABSOLUTE FANTABULOUSNESS!!! Ok, so I made up the second word, but there wasn't a word already in existence to describe just how great this dish is. I did follow the suggestion of toasting the bread first, but it still ended up soggy — it didn't really matter. Mushy bread & all, the meatball sub casserole satisfied my hubby-to-be's football-playin' tummy. Thanks, Brandie, & thanks to the folks @ Gooseberry Patch!
I love cassseroles and Gooseberry publishes some great cookbooks. Shirley at [email protected]
Made this tonight and it was delicious! I picked out a harder French bread and it kept it's crispness through cooking. It was so filling also! Thanks for sharing!
would love to win this cook book for my collection!!
I tried this recipe last night, and boy was it a hit!!! Everyone loved it and I was suprised how delicious and filling it was! Thanks so much for sharing! This is definitely a keeper!
There's just two of us these days, and my meals get pretty boring. I'm going to give this meatball meal a whirl today! I'd love a cookbook to keep me inspired! I do enjoy reading your blog entries.
I can not wait to try this casserole, thx for sharing! Plz sign me up for the chance to win, thx!
Could you make this using whole wheat bread?
I was a little nervous but I went ahead and tried it.. Let me tell you I have a four (almost 5 in a week) year old boy who is so picky and only eats the meatballs out of his spaghetti, but loves French bread and hummus. He approves of this casserole. Even in the stage of putting the cream cheese, mayo and Italian seasoning over the bread I kept having to replace my toasted bread slices bc he kept taking them to eat himself and give his dad to try. He loves to Cook with me in the kitchen and had a blast being my taste tester. I am going to be one of those people wanting that cookbook! Thank you for such a wonderful recipe!
Pretty good recipe…
I dont toast my bread and it comes out perfect! My second time making it now! The whole family loves it.
Has anybody tried this with garlic toast at the bottom in place of the bread? OBVIOUSLY not good for you but I bet it would be good!
I use the Texas toast 5 cheese garlic toast and it’s amazing! My whole crew loves it!
Did you toast the garlic bread before putting it in the casserole?
Gave it a try and it was loved by all. Next time I will add a bit my more seasoning to it for more my taste
So happy to hear that Mr. Joshua! 🙂
Has anyone tried this recipe in a Crock-Pot ?
I’ve gone through the comments looking to see if anyone has tried making this ahead of time and freezing it with any success. No luck. I’ve made it fresh a few times and was just wondering if it would work from frozen.
Great recipe! The bread I used ended up not being very good -maybe stale, I should’ve tested it before using. BUT, the next day I scooped off everything else and made meatball subs! Yum! Thanks for sharing!
Hi, could you do this as a freezer meal?
I have made this recipe 3-4 times and my family loves it. This last time, I used a French bread that was thinner and crusty, so it came out less mushy and even more delicious with some extra crunch in it! I didn't toast the bread before either. Love this super easy and quick recipe that's easy to throw together when I get home from work. Thanks!
My son loves meatball subs, and this was an easier version of that!! Delicious! I did toast the bread prior as mentioned…PERFECT! Thank you!!
Yummmm !!!
Hope you love it Kim!!
This is on your post for freeze & make ahead meals…. Where do you pause the cooking/prep to freeze?
Hi Brooke! Just freeze right before the cooking step! 🙂
I took a chance and made two of these. One for my hubby and I, the other for our friend who just had a baby. Not a move I would usually make when trying a recipe for the first time.
This was DELICIOUS. I had to improvise since my bread was moldy. I sliced up pieces of regular bread, then toasted them in a pan with butter and Italian seasoning. Since I didn’t have slices I was stumped as to how I was going to spread the cream cheese mixture. I microwaved it until soft, then added the mayo and seasoning. After mixing everything together in a medium size bowl I added the bread pieces then stirred to combine. It turned out wonderfully, so I’ll do that again next time.
Great recipe and easy to change to taste (I didn’t, I thought it was great!)
Hi Michelle! Thank you so much! I love how you worked with what you had. Way to go!!
I had a loaf of french bread so I used that instead. It came out great. I did toast the bread before hand. Very easy dinner just add a salad.
With me being diabetic and so many people doing low carb…I think I’ll try this with my homemade low carb bread…the rest should work just fine…wonder what it would taste like with Alfredo instead of pasta sauce? Hubby can’t take the tomatoes!!!
Let me know how it turns out for you!
This is a question. Has anybody tried this with riced cauliflower instead of bread. Hubby is a low to 0 carb diet?
How do I order your cookbook 101 Cozy Casseroles? Thank you!
I love this recipe! I have made it several times using the Texas toast! I skip the cream cheese and mayo, and just pile on the meatballs, sauce and cheese! It’s great for a quick weeknight meal!
