Meatball Sandwiches

I am a meatball sandwich version....or at least I was until I made these!  Captain America was horrified to discover that I had never eaten one, and generally seemed underwhelmed by the concept!  

However, he sold them to me so well that when I found this incredible recipe for Turkey, Spinach & Parmesan Meatballs I decided to make the meatballs and use some of them in sandwiches. 

YES! These are as ridiculously good as they look.....in fact as I type this I want to eat them again!                                                                                

They got the Captain America seal of approval, which for you regular readers know does NOT come easy!  He said they were among the best meatball sandwiches he has ever eaten, and tasted better than a regular beef meatball sandwiches...they were legit!!

The best thing about them is, as far as meatball sandwiches go, they are a really healthy alternative without compromising on the taste!
