Ingredients

  • 32 frozen Italian meatballs
  • 24 ounce jar pasta sauce (see notes below)
  • 8 slices frozen garlic Texas toast
  • 4-8 mozzarella cheese slices
  • 2 teaspoons dried parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425° F. In a large skillet, add 32 frozen Italian meatballs and 24 ounce jar pasta sauce over medium heat.

  • Simmer until the meatballs are tender and heated through. This will take approximately 10 minutes.
  • While the meatballs are cooking, bake 8 slices frozen garlic Texas toast according to the package on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. This will take approximately 5-7 minutes depending on the brand you buy.

  • Scoop 4 meatballs and sauce onto each piece of toast (note: with the meatballs I used, I could fit 4 on each slice of toast.)
