Preparation
To Make the Cashew Parmesan:
- Add all ingredients to a food processor and mix/pulse until a fine meal is achieved. Store in the refrigerator to keep fresh. Lasts for several weeks.
To Make the Oil-Free Caramelized Onions:
- Add 1/4 cup vegetable broth into a pan over medium-low heat. Once warmed, add in the onion, and cook down stirring occasionally for about 15-20 minutes.
- Add more broth as needed to prevent burning but don’t add more until it has cooked off.
To Assemble the Meatball Subs:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Slice open your bread if it is not already cut, and place into an oven on a baking sheet to toast for about 8-10 minutes. Make sure you keep an eye on it to prevent it from getting burned! Remove from oven and allow it to cool a bit before handling.
- Gently add your meatballs into a large mixing bowl, and pour over the marinara or pizza sauce. Toss gently to avoid breaking the meatballs until they are all thoroughly coated with sauce.
- Divide you meatballs amongst your bread and then top with the onions and a sprinkle of parmesan.
