Ingredients
24 Rhodes Dinner Rolls or 12 Rhodes Texas Size Rolls
24 large or 36 small meatballs, precooked
1 cup marinara sauce
2 cups mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup Softened butter
1/2tsp Garlic seasoning
1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
Instructions
- 1. Combine two thawed Dinner Rolls, and repeat until you have 12 large dinner rolls. Place rolls evenly on a sprayed, 9×13 pan and cover with plastic wrap sprayed with cooking spray to keep from sticking to rolls while rising.
- Let rise 1-2 hours until the rolls double in size. The actual time depends on the temperature of your kitchen. Do not overproof. The rolls will continue to rise while baking.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Carefully remove plastic wrap. Bake 15-20 minutes, until golden brown.
- When rolls are cooled, insert a serrated knife into the top of the roll. Cut a circle out of the roll; once removed it will look like a mini bread bowl.
- In a separate bowl, combine meatballs and marinara.
- Place 3-4 small meatballs or 1-2 large meatballs in each roll.
- Add approx. 1 Tablespoon of cheese on top of meatballs.
- Brush top with softened butter. Sprinkle with garlic seasoning and Italian seasoning.
- Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
- Cover with foil and bake at 350 for 10-15 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes utill hot and cheese is fully melted.
