Prep the Rolls:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Take the Hawaiian rolls out of the package and place them on a baking dish.
Using a knife, cut out a circle in the center of each roll and remove the filling. Use your fingers to press down the remaining bread to create a hole large enough to fit a meatball.
