With it being the peak of summer and travel plans booking up, it’s the perfect time to share a delicious vacation-themed recipe because as adults we know that even though it’s vacation, the family still needs to be fed.

Today we are going to be building our own pasta bowls. I always make this for my family when we travel and it’s something everyone always loves because it is so easily customizable.

Heinen's Grocery Store

By Heinen's Grocery Store

In 1929, Joe Heinen opened the doors of a small butcher shop on the east side of Cleveland, Ohio, aiming to establish himself as the city’s purveyor of quality meats. As customers came into Heinen’s new shop for their meat purchases, they began asking him to carry groceries as well. Joe added homemade peanut butter, pickles and donuts and by 1933, business had grown enough to include a line of produce and canned goods. Heinen’s Grocery Store was born.
