Grilled Meatball Sliders
A quick and easy dinner idea for the whole family. Italian Meatball Sliders made with frozen meatballs, Tomato Basil Sauce, Hawaiian rolls, and Provolone cheese, cooked on the grill. This whole meal comes together in under 20 minutes!
Servings: 12 slider rolls
Cost: $15
Ingredients
- 1 pack pre-cooked frozen meatballs
- 1 12-pack slider rolls (we use King's Hawaiian Rolls)
- 1 1/2 cups O Organics Tomato Basil Sauce
- 6 slices Provolone cheese
- 1 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 teaspoon granulated garlic
- 1 pinch kosher salt (a scant 1/8 teaspoon)
- shaved Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat grill to 350 degrees.
- Thaw meatballs on the grill (or quickly in the microwave, per the packaging instructions)
- Lay out the rolls on a baking sheet and slice them in half horizontally.
- Place 1 tablespoon of marinara sauce over each roll, then place one meatball on each of the roll bottoms (12 meatballs total, for the total of 12 buns). Place 6 slices of provolone cheese so it evenly covers the meatballs. Top with more sauce. Place the top half of the rolls gently over the top of the meatballs.
- In a separate bowl, mix melted butter with the granulated garlic and salt. Brush butter mixture over the tops of the rolls. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
- Place the baking sheet with the sliders on the grill and cook until warm and melted (8-10 minutes). Enjoy!
Notes
For the leftover lunch the next day: Thaw all the meatballs, even though you will only be using 12 for the sliders. You can use the remaining thawed and cooked meatballs for a quick protein packed lunch the next day.
