Meatball Casserole Subs

**Warning: These are SUPER messy but SUPER delicious**

Yesterday I made this Meatball Casserole and turned it into Subs and it was a HIT you guys! They turned out amazing. So I used the Meatball Casserole recipe from Joy Filled Eats and we made it our own and then turned the bake into subs. The recipe calls for Ground Turkey and Italian Sausage but we couldn't find any nearby so we just used Ground Beef. We also used more marinara sauce and instead of dried minced onion and garlic we used onion and garlic powder. We also eliminated the zucchini. See our version below. We also had plenty of leftovers that we will be eating later this week. Let me know if you make this recipe and what you think in the comments below!

Ingredients:
1.5lb ground beef
1 cup shredded mozzarella
1/3 cup shredded parmesan
1 egg
2tsp onion powder
2tsp garlic powder
2tsp dried basil
1tsp salt
32oz marinara sauce
8oz shredded cheese for the top (I did 4oz cheddar cheese and 4 more oz of mozzarella)
Sausage/Hoagie rolls


Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a baking sheet/casserole dish with PAM or cooking spray. Combine all of the ingredients except the 32oz marinara sauce and 8oz shredded cheese. 

Mix thoroughly and make about 24 meatballs - about the size of golf balls. Place in the casserole dish. 

Bake for about 30 minutes, drain the cooking liquid. I then moved the meatballs altogether to one side and then added the marinara sauce and 8oz shredded cheese on top and baked for 15 more minutes. 



With 10 minutes left, separate the hoagie rolls and place the rolls on the baking sheet and cook for about 5-10 minutes. 


When time is up, place 3-5 meatballs with marinara sauce on each half of a roll, fold over and enjoy!

Book Review and Summary - Prince Harry - "Spare"

Image
I may be one of the few, but I was intrigued by Prince Harrys' story, which prompted me to pick up his book "Spare." I have to say, as I first started reading, I couldn't put it down, I think I read 50+ pages the first day. I was aware of Prince Harry but knew very little about his life. I remember negative things in the news, all of the negative stories of him. He sounded to me like the "troubled" brother, and, unfortunately, he and everyone else believed he was. I also now understand the meaning behind the book title. The name "Spare" is a name that is described as the one that isn't important. Think of a spare tire, you are kind of pushed to the side until you are needed. As Prince Harry said, his brother was the "Heir" and he was the "Spare" and it was very unfortunate events throughout  the book that describe how and why he felt like this. He mentioned Willy (Prince William) and him were, "The Heir and the Spare. I

10 Ways to Make Parenting a Middle Schooler a Little Bit Easier

Image
My cousin and I were spending some time together a few days ago and she asked about Jace and how he was doing in school. After a few minutes, she suggested that I blog about it. Initially, I wasn't too keen on the idea, but after doing some research, I realized that parenting a middle schooler can be tough for a lot of parents (I got lucky and he is probably one of the easiest ones) at times so I decided to write down what I do to make our days better. Having a middle schooler is so different than having a child in elementary, to me. Here are 10 things that I/we have done that has really made our days easier and better together.  1. Be consistent - every morning I ask my son how he slept and when he comes home, I ask him how his day was. When we eat together as a family (2-3X per week), we each go around the table discussing our highlight of the day. If I somehow miss or forget the questions, he asks me what my highlight was or how my day was which I absolutely love.  On the same t
