Rockin' Recipe Roundup Wk6

Here is my layout for the Rockin Recipe Roundup 2006, week 6 at SOTB. This week's theme is Italian food. I haven't tried this recipe yet, mainly because I haven't had the items on hand to do it. But, it looks SOO good. I really want to try it.
Here is the recipe

1/3 cup chopped green onions
1/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs
3 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
1 pound ground beef
1 loaf (1 pound) Italian bread, cut into 1-inch slices
1 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1/4 tsp pepper
2 cups (8 oz) shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
1 jar (28 oz) spaghetti sauce
1 cup water
2 garlic cloves, minced

In a bowl, combine onions, crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Add beef and mix well. Shape into 1-in. balls; place on a rack in a shallow baking pan. Bake at 400*F for 15-20 minutes or until no longer pink. Meanwhile, arrange bread in a single layer in an ungreased 13x9x2 inch baking dish (all of the bread might not be used).Combine cream cheese, mayonnaise, Italian seasoning and pepper; spread over the bread. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup mozzarella. Combine sauce, water and garlic; add meatballs. Pour over cheese mixture; sprinkle with remaining mozzarella. Bake, uncovered, at 350*F for 30 minutes or until heated through.YIELD: 6-8 servings.NOTE: Do not use reduced-fat or fat-free mayonnaise.

I also did up this recipe in a 4x6 for another group that I am on. We are trying to compile a 4x6 recipe book, either for ourselves or as gifts. This is going to be fun. For the 4x6 layout I used the Rockin Recipe Roundup 2005, Wk 3 Kit ... created by Elizabeth Lane at SOTB.
