Ingredients

  • 12 Hawaiian rolls
  • 12 frozen meatballs thawed
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup crushed pineapple drained
  • ¼ cup jalapeño jelly
  • ¼ cup barbecue sauce
  • 2 tablespoons butter melted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon parsley flakes

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350° degrees. Line a 9x13 casserole dish with parchment paper or lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the crushed pineapple, jalapeño jelly, and barbecue sauce. Heat on medium until the mixture is smooth and slightly thickened, about 3-5 minutes. Set aside.
  • Hollow out the roll using a small knife. Cut a hollow in the center of each Hawaiian roll, being careful not to go through the bottom. Set the rolls in the prepared baking dish.
  • Combine the melted butter, garlic powder, and parsley flakes. Brush the butter mixture generously over the tops of the rolls.
  • Next, spoon a small amount of the glaze into each hollowed roll. Place a meatball into each hollow and top with another spoonful of the glaze. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella over the meatballs.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake an additional 10-15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the tops are golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven, and allow to cool slightly. Serve warm and enjoy!
