Meatball Sub Bubble-Up Bake: A Comfort Food Delight

Are you ready to indulge in a warm and cheesy dish that’s perfect for busy weeknights? Meet the Meatball Sub Bubble-Up Bake!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can Homestyle refrigerated original biscuits
  • 1 bag frozen cooked Italian meatballs
  • 1 green bell pepper diced and sautéed
  • 3 cups marinara sauce
  • 2 cups shredded Italian cheese blend
  • Grated Parmesan cheese to taste
  • Chopped fresh basil optional, for garnish

Method
 

  1. Preheat Your Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures your dish bakes evenly!
  2. Prepare the Biscuits: Open the can of Homestyle refrigerated biscuits and separate them. Cut each biscuit into 6 pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Mix in the Goodies: Add the frozen cooked Italian meatballs, sautéed green bell pepper, and marinara sauce into the bowl. Gently stir until everything is well coated with the sauce.
  4. Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the mixture into an ungreased baking dish, spreading it out evenly across the bottom.
  5. Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded Italian cheese blend generously over the top of the mixture, ensuring a cheesy crust.
  6. Bake: Place the dish in the oven and bake for about 35 minutes. Keep an eye on it: it’s ready when the biscuit pieces are puffed up and the cheese is melted and golden brown.
  7. Finish with Flavor: Once baked, remove from the oven and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese. If desired, add a garnish of fresh basil for a burst of flavor.
  8. Serve and Enjoy: Allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your Meatball Sub Bubble-Up Bake with family and friends!
