This post is a little late...ok, a lot late but better late than never right? Especially when there is delicious food that needs to be shared. In January, my husband and I were in Tulum, Mexico for a little birthday getaway which coincided with Tulum Vegan Fest.  This was my first time attending a vegfest outside of the U.S. which was so fun!  It was also my first time in Tulum which was a win-win! One of our first stops was at The Real Coconut which was situated right on the beach.  A beautiful view and beautiful food, you can't ask for...

With it being Veganuary right now, I've seen a lot of people taking the challenge which is so exciting!  If you're unfamiliar with Veganuary- it is an organization started in the UK that encourages (and helps!) people to go vegan for the month of January.  And this probably goes without saying that even when it's not January, you can still take a 30 Day vegan pledge! :)  During this month, I have also seen vegan YouTubers share their experiences on living a vegan lifestyle which is awesome.  It has inspired me to share my vegan story.
