Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 pita bread rounds
1 pound mild Italian sausage (such as Johnsonville®)
1 (15 ounce) jar four-cheese pasta sauce (such as Classico®)
¼ cup minced onion
3 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
1 ½ cups shredded fresh mozzarella cheese
½ teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Trim about 1 inch from one side of each pita pocket and arrange onto prepared sheet.
  • Roll sausage into 32 small meatballs.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Fry meatballs in skillet until completely browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Drain meatballs on a plate lined with paper towel.
  • Stir pasta sauce, onion, and cream cheese together in a saucepan over medium heat; cook, stirring regularly until onion is tender, 7 to 10 minutes.
  • Transfer meatballs to a large mixing bowl; add 1 cup of the pasta sauce mixture and mozzarella cheese. Mix until the meatballs are coated in sauce and cheese.
  • Gently stuff pita pockets with meatball mixture using a small spoon.
  • Bake stuffed pita pockets in preheated oven until heated through and the cheese is melted, about 10 minutes.
  • Serve pockets with remaining sauce for dipping.
