OK - here goes! Hi everyone! Thanks for starting this, Jenna - I think it's going to be fun sharing recipes this way. I haven't made this one yet. I just saw it on my daily email from LDS Living from Deseret Book. They look great - and of course you could use homemade bread dough in place of the Rhodes rolls, and homemade meatballs, too. Let me know if you try it before I do. Love you all!

Meatball Muffins -Powered by Rhodes
These muffins will surprise everyone! Great Italian taste, simple to make!
Prep Time: 20 min Bake Time: 25 min Servings: 12

12 Rhodes Dinner Rolls, thawed to room temperature
1/4 cup marinara sauce
12 frozen cooked Italian style meatballs
3 sticks mozzarella string cheese, cut in fourths
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
extra marinara sauce, if desired

Spray counter lightly with non-stick cooking spray. Flatten each roll into a 5-inch circle. Place 1 teaspoon marinara sauce in the center of each circle. Top with 1 meatball and a piece of string cheese cut in half. Place a piece of cheese on two sides of the meatball. Pull dough up around filling to completely enclose and pinch to seal. Place one seam side down in each cup of a sprayed 12 cup muffin tin. Brush each one with butter and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. Cover with sprayed plastic wrap and let rise 30-45 minutes. Remove wrap and bake at 350F 20-25 minutes. Serve warm with warm marinara sauce, if desired.
