Chef's Note

Creating a fat barrier with cheese prevents sauce from making your sandwich bread soggy during transit.

Ingredients
  • 1 whole sub roll

  • 6 pieces leftover fully cooked meatballs

  • 2 slices sliced provolone cheese

  • 2 tbsp jarred marinara sauce

Instructions
  • 1

    Slice 1 sub roll open lengthwise, leaving one side attached to form a pocket.

  • 2

    Place 6 leftover fully cooked meatballs (reserved from Day 4) in a microwave-safe bowl, spoon 2 tbsp jarred marinara sauce over them, cover with a damp paper towel, and microwave on high for 1 to 2 minutes until hot.

  • 3

    Lay 2 slices provolone cheese inside the split sub roll, lining both the bottom and top halves to create a protective barrier for the bread.

  • 4

    Carefully spoon the 6 hot, sauced meatballs into the cheese-lined sub roll.

  • 5

    To pack for transit: Wrap the assembled sandwich tightly in parchment paper or aluminum foil, which holds the structure together and prevents leaking, then place it in a hard-sided container to avoid crushing.
