Ingredients

  • 8 slices frozen garlic bread
  • Cooking spray
  • 2 cups shredded Italian blend cheese, divided
  • ½ cup light garlic-herb cheese spread
  • ¼ cup reduced-fat mayonnaise
  • 1 bag frozen beef/pork Italian-style meatballs (14–16 oz)
  • 1 (24-oz) jar pasta sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Italian (or seasoned) bread crumbs

Steps

    1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Place garlic bread on baking sheet; bake 2–3 minutes or until thawed and soft. Coat 13- x 9-inch square baking dish with spray. Cut bread into bite-size pieces, then place into baking dish, packing tightly to fit.
