    Chef’s Note: One of my goals here at Just-a-Pinch is to develop enough versatile recipes, that they can be combined to make other recipes, and this recipe utilizes three of my posted recipes to produce yummy dinner rolls stuffed with a tasty meatball, and dipped into a heavenly marinara sauce. If you are in a bit of a rush, you can use store-bought meatballs, store-bought dinner roll dough, and store-bought marinara sauce… But, where is the fun in that?
