Bake in the oven for 30 minutes until the meatballs are almost cooked through.  Pour the marinara sauce over the meatballs and stir so they are well coated. Top the meatballs with a quarter cup of the shredded mozzarella cheese. Let them bake for about 10 minutes until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese is completely melted. If desired, (and I always desire more cheese) add the rest of the mozzarella and the one tablespoon of Parmesan over them and bake 2 more minutes until the cheese is melted.

Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 Lb. Ground turkey
  • 1/4 Cup Dry Italian breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 Small Onion, finely minced
  • 1 Egg, beaten
  • 1 Tbsp. Grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 Tsp. Onion powder
  • 1/4 Tsp. Garlic powder
  • 1 Tbsp. Fresh Italian Parsley, chopped
  • 1/2 Tsp. Kosher salt
  • 1/4 Tsp. Fresh ground black pepper
  • 1 Cup Marinara Sauce, favorite store bought or my recipe
  • 2 Tbsp. Parmesan Cheese, grated
  • 1/2 Cup Shredded Mozzarella
  • 1 Tbsp. Fresh Italian parsley leaves
  • 8 King’s Hawaiian Rolls
  • Cooking spray

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Make your meatballs by gently mixing the first 10 ingredients in a large bowl. Don’t over mix or your meatballs will get tough. Divide the meat into 8 even sized portions and roll into meatballs. Place meatballs in a backing dish sprayed with cooking spray.
  • Bake in the oven for 30 minutes until the meatballs are almost cooked through.
  • Pour the marinara sauce over the meatballs and stir so they are well coated. Top the meatballs with a quarter cup of the shredded mozzarella cheese. Let them bake for about 10 minutes until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese is completely melted. If desired, (and I always desire more cheese) add the rest of the mozzarella and the one tablespoon of Parmesan over them and bake 2 more minutes until the cheese is melted. Take out of the oven and garnish with the parsley leaves.
  • Cut your buns in half and sprinkle a little Parmesan on the bottom of each bun.
  • Top the bottom of the bun with one meat ball and some of the sauce. Top with the top half of the bun and skewer with a large toothpick. Serve with extra sauce on the side and enjoy.
