Need a quick and tasty meal that you can put together in a flash? Grab a few ingredients and whip up a Meatball Pocket Pull Apart.

My guys are meatball-aholics so I am always trying to find new ways to give them their favorite foods. I saw the deals on meatballs, crescent, cheese and pasta sauce and decided it was a great time to serve up a tasty pull-apart.

This is easy to prep and has the taste of a meatball sub without the mess. Everything is tucked neatly inside the bread and it’s kinda fun to let everyone dive in and grab their dinner.
