Preparation
- In a large bowl, combine the mushrooms, cannellini beans, onion, bread crumbs, ½ cup (15 grams) of parsley, 3 cloves of minced garlic, the dried rosemary, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, nutmeg, liquid smoke, salt, and pepper and mix well.
- Roll the mushroom mixture into golf ball-sized balls.
- Heat the canola oil in a large pot over medium-high heat until shimmering. Place the balls in the pot and cook for 1 minute on each side until browned all over, 3-4 minutes total.
- Add the marinara sauce and stir to coat the balls.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Slice the rolls in half lengthwise. Place the bottom half on a 9x13-inch (23x33-cm) rimmed baking sheet. Place the meatballs on top, followed by any remaining marinara sauce in the pot, then the mozzarella. Top with the top half of the rolls.
- Mix the melted butter in a small bowl with the remaining tablespoon of minced garlic, the Parmesan, and remaining teaspoon of parsley. Brush the tops of the rolls with the butter mixture.
- Bake for 15 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown.
- Slice into individual sliders, then serve.
- Enjoy!
