Makes 12 meatballs, 4 sandwiches

1.25 pound ground turkey

½ - 3/4 cup bread crumbs

1 teaspoon dried basil

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon dried parsley

1/2 teaspoon garlic salt

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 large egg

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon Montreal steak spice

1 jar Classico Pizza Sauce 

Provolone slices

Sandwich rolls

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.  In a large bowl, mix together turkey, bread crumbs, basil, oregano, parsley, garlic salt, Parmesan cheese, egg, olive oil, and steak spice.  Form meat mixture into 1-1/2" meatballs, flatten slightly, and place on a greased cookie sheet.  Bake for 15 minutes, or until cooked through.

Turn oven to Broil – High.  Open sandwich rolls so that almost completely cut through but not completely, arrange on baking sheet and toast in broiler for 2-3 minutes (do not overly brown).  Remove from broiler, spoon and spread out a thin layer of pizza sauce on both halves of rolls.  Place three meatballs on bottom half, top with appropriate amount of provolone followed by a small dollop of pizza sauce, return to broiler until cheese is melted, browning, and bubbling.

Serve with Caesar salad or whatever the heart desires.
