Cooking Steps

Prep and marinate carrots
1
  • Add apricot spread and 3 tbsp (6 tbsp) BBQ sauce to a small bowl, then stir to combine. Set aside.
  • Peel, then coarsely grate carrot.
  • Add vinegar, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar and 1 1/2 tbsp (3 tbsp) oil to a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine. Add carrots, then toss to coat.
Form meatballs
2
  • Add sausage, half the panko (use all for 4 ppl), remaining BBQ sauce, half the garlic puree and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt to a medium bowl. (TIP: If you prefer more tender meatballs, add an egg to mixture!) 
  • Season with pepper, then combine.
  • Roll mixture into 8 equal-sized meatballs (16 meatballs for 4 ppl).

 

Cook meatballs
3
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
  • When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then meatballs.
  • Cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides and cooked through, 11-13 min.** (TIP: Reduce heat to medium-low if browning too quickly.)
  • Remove pan from heat. Carefully drain and discard fat.
  • Add apricot-BBQ sauce mixture, then toss to coat meatballs.
  • Cover to keep warm.

 

Toast garlic-butter buns
4
  • Meanwhile, halve buns. Arrange on a baking sheet, cut-side up.
  • Add 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter to a small pot. Melt over medium heat, 1-2 min.
  • Add remaining garlic puree. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 30 sec.
  • Brush garlic butter onto halved buns. Sprinkle cheese over top halves.
  • Broil in the middle of the oven until cheese melts, 1-3 min. (TIP: Keep an eye on buns so they don't burn!)

 

Make salad
5
  • Add spring mix to the bowl with carrots, then toss to combine.
Finish and serve
6
  • Stack meatballs and sauce from the pan on bottom buns. Close with top buns. Cut sandwiches in half.
  • Divide sandwiches and salad between plates. Sprinkle salad topping mix over salad.
