💰Cheaper: grated pecorino

Nutritional yeast adds a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

slider buns

🥗Healthier: whole grain buns

💰Cheaper: hot dog buns

Whole grain buns offer more fiber, while hot dog buns are often cheaper.

mozzarella cheese

🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella

💰Cheaper: provolone cheese

Part-skim mozzarella reduces fat, while provolone is a cost-effective option.

ground beef

🥗Healthier: ground turkey

💰Cheaper: ground chicken

Ground turkey is leaner, while ground chicken is often less expensive.

Prepare the meatballs using the ground beef, eggs, parsley, black pepper, and grated cheese (parmigiano reggiano and pecorino romano).

Form the mixture into meatballs and set aside.

In a pan, heat olive oil and sauté the chopped onion and garlic until translucent.

Add the meatballs to the pan and brown them on all sides.

Pour in the tomato sauce and let it simmer for about an hour on low heat.

Meanwhile, prepare the bread and slice the green peppers and cherry tomatoes.

Once the meatballs are cooked, assemble the sandwich by placing the meatballs, sauce, and peppers inside the bread.
