Scale
- 24 Hawaiian rolls
- 36 Italian-style meatballs, thawed
- 2-2 1/2 cups marinara sauce
- 12 Slices Mozzarella
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 tsp garlic salt
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 cup shredded parmesan
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
- Prepare the frozen meatballs according to the package directions until fully cooked and hot. The fastest way to do this is in the microwave.
- Cut the cooked meatballs in half.
- Slice the Hawaiian sweet rolls in half lengthwise to create a top and bottom section.
- Place the bottom half of the rolls into the prepared pan. Arrange the halved meatballs on the bottom buns (approximately three halved meatballs per bun section).
- Spread the marinara sauce over the meatballs. Adjust the amount of marinara to your preference, using 1–2 cups total.
- Lay cheese slices over the meatballs, ensuring they cover the entire bottom section of rolls.
- Place the top half of the rolls over the cheese.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. You could also do this in a small saucepan on the stovetop.
- Add the garlic salt and Italian seasoning to the melted butter and whisk together.
- Brush the top of the sliders generously with the garlic butter mixture.
- Add shredded parmesan cheese to the tops of the rolls.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the rolls are golden brown.
- Serve warm, and enjoy these easy meatball sliders!
