They might look messy, but their smaller size and my secret tip cut down on the spillage. You won’t be losing any meatballs with these sliders. We batch make our favorite ricotta meatballs ahead of time to use in soups, pasta, and meals throughout the month. It cuts down on time and makes assembling some of our favorite meals as easy as defrosting and baking. These sliders take about 20 minutes from assembly to table.

Check out the simple directions for instructions and tips for making virtually mess-free meatball sliders.

Ingredients

8 mini-hamburger buns
16 meatballs
1 c. pizza sauce
1/2 c. mozzarella
2 tbsp. butter
1 tbsp. parmesan
1 tsp. Italian seasoning garlic, parsley, onion powder

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°.
Prep your meatballs by cutting them in half.
Slice the hamburger buns in half. Place the bottom sheet of buns in a foil lined baking dish. Set aside the top buns.
Place 4 meatball halves onto each bun.
Top with 1-2 tbsp. of pizza sauce.
Place one pinch (`1 tbsp.) of mozzarella on top.
Put the top sheet of buns on top.
Melt the butter. Add parmesan and Italian seasonings, mix. Brush the tops with the meted butter and herbs.
Place sliders in oven 8-10 minutes until tops are golden brown.

Notes

Use store bought or homemade frozen meatballs to cut down on prep time.

These work great for parties and are easy to double or even triple. Just use a larger baking dish and pile in 2-3 more sheets of mini-buns. Bake time should remain the same, but might need adjusting if you have multiple dishes in the oven at the same time.
