Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium saucepan, combine the frozen cooked meatballs and marinara sauce. Heat over medium heat for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the meatballs are heated through.
While the meatballs are heating, prepare the hoagie rolls. Slice them open lengthwise, but do not cut all the way through, creating a pocket.
Brush the inside of each hoagie roll with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder and dried Italian seasoning. Place the rolls on a baking sheet, cut side up.
Toast the hoagie rolls in the preheated oven for 5 minutes until lightly crispy.
Once the rolls are toasted, spoon 5 meatballs into each roll along with a generous amount of marinara sauce.
Top the meatballs with shredded mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese.
Place the sandwiches back into the oven for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the sandwiches from the oven and garnish with fresh basil leaves.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Quick Meatball Sandwiches!
