Baked Meatball Sub

I made this from of course, pinterest, because it looked so good. The pinterest in red is the link to the original so you can see what I mean when I saw it looked good. Mine doesn't look as good as that picture but it tasted as delicious as I thought it would.

1 loaf Italian bread, cut into 1-inch thick slices (I bought a loaf from the store and cut it in half and but it in a 9x13 glass dish)
8-oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
1/2 c. mayonnaise
1 t. Italian seasoning
1/4 t. pepper
2 c. shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
1-lb. pkg. frozen meatballs, thawed
28-oz. jar pasta sauce
1 c. water

Above is the mayo mixture. If you know me well, you know I HATE mayo but I couldn't taste it so I was fine.

Arrange bread slices in a single layer in an ungreased 13"x9" baking pan; set aside. In a bowl, combine cream cheese, mayonnaise and seasonings; spread over bread slices. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup cheese; set aside. Gently mix together meatballs, spaghetti sauce and water; spoon over cheese. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Serves 4.

 

It was tasty!!! Not to bad for a quick meal during a work week!
