So I decided to make some meatball subs awhile back, but we've been staying pretty busy so I haven't had a chance to post them. These were done sometime last month, I believe the week before Thanksgiving.

Started off with some bread I keep in the freezer from homemade loaves.

I toast them, chop them down in the food processor, add some eggs , basil, garlic, onion, and oregano.

Then I throw in some pork and beef that I ground down:

Form them into meatballs:

Then I put them in the fridge to firm up, and start up Lil' Spidey.
Once Lil' Spidey gets up to temp I start throwing them on in batches:

Here's some of the end results!

While those were cooking I started up the sauce. Used some tomato sauce I had canned up; threw in some salt, pepper, basil, oregano, marjoram, and thyme along with some mushrooms:

I had some dough rising in the oven, and once the sauce started cooking I shaped the hoagies and let them do their final rise:

After baking:

Combined it all together, and had some white bean salad on the side:

It's a pretty simple side all things considered. Some diced tomatoes, pressed garlic, diced grilled onions, and EVOO with some random herbs. I believe that had basil, and marjoram; I feel as though I put something else in there, but can't remember for the life of me what it was; it was definitely not oregano though, I felt it'd be too strong. White beans of course as well. Cooked them up in the pressure cooker, took out a big serving spoonful's worth and mashed them up a bit into a paste, then mixed everything together. I put the whole mix into the fridge and let it chill, serve it cold.

The herbs you can just do whatever with. Depending on what herbs you use in the rest of your cooking and the like. It's sort of like salad dressing, whatever sounds good more often than not tastes great.
