Great Casseroles

MEATBALL SUB CASSEROLE

1/3 cup chopped green onions
1/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 pound ground beef
1 loaf (1 lb) Italian bread, cut in 1 inch slices
1 pkg. (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup mayonnaise

In a bowl, combine onions, crumbs, and Parmesan cheese. Add beef and mix well. Shape into 1 inch balls; place on a rack in a shallow baking pan. Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until no longer pink. Meanwhile, arrange bread in a single layer in an ungreased 13 X 9 X 2 in. baking dish (all of the bread may not be used).

Combine cream cheese, mayonnaise, Italian seasoning and pepper; spread over the bread. Combine sauce, water and garlic; add meatballs. Pour over cheese mixture, sprinkle with remaining mozzarella. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until heated through. YIELD: 6-8 Servings.
(Editor's note: Do not use reduced-fat or fat-free mayonnaise).
