"Walnuts, Baby Bella mushrooms, savory spices, and fresh parsley are mixed with fresh bread crumbs to create these amazing meatballs. If that wasn't good enough, they're stuffed into a toasted roll with balsamic-glazed vegetables. The subs come together in about 30 minutes, so they're perfect for a weeknight, weekend, or whenever dinner. You could easily bake up a batch over the weekend and reheat throughout the week. They would be perfect with pasta or on a pizza...."
