Cooking Steps
- 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.
- 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).
- 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.
- 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!)
- Add spring mix to the bowl with carrots, then toss to combine.
- 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.
If you've opted to get sausage, prep and cook it in the same way the recipe instructs you to prep and cook the beef.**
