These sliders are the ultimate comfort food, and they're so easy to make. AND I definitely STOLE this recipe for my next game day party. :-)

Trust me... these are worth they hype, we were positively DROOLING over them!!!

Ingredients:

• 1 package (of 12) Kings Hawaiian Rolls

• 12 cocktail meatballs (cooked)

• 1/2 cup tomato sauce (I love Rao's)

• 1/4-1/2 cup mozzarella cheese (divided)

• 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese

• Parsley for garnish (optional)

• Garlic butter (4 tablespoons soft butter, 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon Parmesan cheese & sprinkle of salt )

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. Prepare the rolls: Cut small, deep circles into the center of each Hawaiian roll without cutting through to the bottom. Use your fingers or the bottom of a small glass to push down the center and create a larger space.

3. Make the garlic butter: Melt butter and add remaining ingredients.

4. Spoon the garlic butter: Spoon the garlic butter on top and inside of the rolls.

5. Bake: Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for about 6 minutes, or until lightly toasted.

6. Fill the rolls: Add a small amount of tomato sauce to the center of each roll. Place a small piece of mozzarella cheese in each roll, followed by a cooked meatball. Add another slice of cheese. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

7. Bake again: Bake for another 6-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.(checking frequently)

8. Serve: Let the sliders cool slightly before garnishing with parsley and serving.

Tips:

• For a quicker meal, use pre-cooked meatballs and jarred tomato sauce.

• You can customize these sliders with your favorite toppings, such as mushrooms, onions, or peppers.

• Serve with your favorite dipping sauce, such as marinara or ranch.
