Meatball & Red Pesto Rolls
It really doesn't get any easier or more satisfying than these super quick Meatball & Pesto Rolls. I made a batch of my fave Beyond Meat meatballs, stuffed some rolls with red pesto, melty mozz, fresh basil, and grana padano to finish. Quick and delicious.

- Preheat your oven to 400 F
- Add all of the ingredients for your meatballs to a mixing bowl and work the mixture together with your hands until combined. Form the mixture into 6 equal sized meatballs. Start with two heaping tablespoons per, and then if there's some leftover after the 6, work the remaining mixture into your rolled meatballs. Place your rolled meatballs onto a parchment lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 12 minutes, flip, and continue for another 7 - 10 until fully cooked.
- Get your rolls onto a baking sheet and slice them open without slicing them the entire way through. Spread a generous amount of your red pesto on each side of your open rolls. Stuff two meatballs into each roll and place a slice of pizza mozz over the meatballs / bread. Spread a little more red pesto on top of the mozz.
- Return the tray to the oven for about 5 minutes until the cheese is melty and the outside of the buns are slightly toasty. The insides will still be soft and fluffy.
- Remove your tray to a wire cooling rack and sprinkle them with finely shredded grana padano. Finish with some gorgeous basil leaves, serve, and ENJOY!
Notes
- Depending on the size of the buns / rolls, make your meatballs accordingly. If your buns are smaller, you could end up with 8 meatballs to accommodate and 4 sandwiches instead of 3. Just make sure the meatballs are appropriately sized to your buns!
