Ingredients:
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/3 cup whole milk
1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup soft bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 1/4 pounds bulk Italian sausage
3/4 pound ground beef
2 jars (26 ounces each) spaghetti sauce
1 loaf (1 pound) unsliced French bread, halved lengthwise
8 slices part-skim mozzarella cheese
Shredded Parmesan cheese, optional

Directions:
In a large bowl, combine the eggs, milk, onion, garlic, bread crumbs, salt and Italian seasoning. Crumble sausage and beef over mixture; mix well.

Shape into 1-in. balls. Place meatballs on a greased rack in a shallow baking pan. Bake at 425° for 15 minutes or until browned; drain.

In a Dutch oven, heat the spaghetti sauce over medium heat. Add meatballs; simmer for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, bake bread at 325° for 10 minutes or until heated through.

Place mozzarella cheese on bottom half of bread; spoon meatballs onto cheese. Replace top. Slice sandwich into serving-size portions; serve with extra spaghetti sauce and, if desired, Parmesan cheese.
