Meatballs And Mozzarella Sandwiches - cooking recipe

30 meatballs (cooked, 1-inch diameter balls. If 1.5-inch balls, use 15 to 20)

1/4 bell pepper (any color, sliced into thin wedges)
8 ounces spaghetti sauce (use your favorite jarred sauce)

2 French baguettes (thin. totalling 30 inches or 5 submarine buns)
2 tablespoons olive oil (I like herb flavored)

Either make your own meatballs (see Bergy's Recip #33944) or use frozen meatballs thawed and heated.
Heat the sauce in a sauce pan.
Preheat the oven to 375\u00b0F.
Saute vegetables in the olive oil.
Spoon a small amount of sauce onto each bun or 6\" section of baguette.
Stuff the buns with 3 to 6 meatballs depending on size.
Add a bit more sauce to each sandwich.
Add salt and pepper if needed.
Sprinkle 2 to 3 tablespoons cheese over each set of meatballs.
Place on a foil-lined baking sheet so that the sandwiches support each other and.
Place into the middle shelf of the oven.
Bake for 25 to 35 minutes until buns are browned and crusty.
Cool for 5 to10 minutes and serve with a nice salad or fries.
