Meatballs and Mozzarella Sandwiches

Crustly loaves filled with meatballs, sauce, mozzarella and onions and peppers heated to a crunchy, melty finish. This can be made quick and easy with frozen meatballs and ready made sauce, but we like to make our own turkey meatballs and crusty baguettes. The sandwiches in the photo are made using Bergy's Recipe #33944 (we bake them) and our own sourdough baguettes.
