    For some of you from New England, you know what a grinder is. It's a baked sub sandwich. The pizza parlors make them in their pizza ovens. Here's what I use. You can substitute Italian sweet or hot sausage for meatballs.

    Italian Sub Rolls
    Home Made Meatballs (Or store bought)
    Home Made Marinara or Pizza Sauce (Or favorite jar sauce - I like Muir Glen)
    Sliced Provolone Cheese
    Grated Parmesan Cheese
    Fire Roasted/Steamed Red or Green Bell Pepper cut in 6ths.

    Preheat oven to 350

    Heat the Meatballs and Sauce together in a pan. Take Meatballs out and set aside. Slice the rolls on the side most of the way and the meatballs in half. Spoon a little sauce on the top and bottom of the roll, add the meatballs flat side down and add a little more sauce on top. Place slices of roasted peppers and then slices of provolone on top. Sprinkle with Parmesan. Place in oven on a sided cookie sheet or a large baking pan and bake at 350 for 15 minutes. Crust should be crunchy but not burnt. Enjoy!
