FARMER MARKETS:

Explore farmers markets in Sardinia, where you can find a variety of fresh, locally sourced produce. Fill your basket with an array of colorful fruits, vegetables, and herbs to create your own plant-based meals or snacks.

 

VEGAN-FRIENDLY RESTAURANTS:

Many restaurants and cafes in Sardinia now offer vegan options on their menus or are entirely dedicated to plant-based cuisine. 

 

TRADITIONAL SARDINIAN DISHES:

Although traditional Sardinian cuisine is meat-heavy, you can still find vegan modifications of some iconic dishes. For example, "malloreddus" (Sardinian pasta) can often be paired with a flavorful tomato-based sauce, and "pane carasau" (a thin, crispy bread) can be enjoyed with vegetable-based spreads or dips.

 

COOKING CLASSES:

Consider taking a vegan cooking class in Sardinia to learn how to prepare traditional Sardinian dishes with a plant-based twist. These classes often focus on using local ingredients and can provide valuable insights into the island's culinary heritage.

 

Remember to communicate your dietary preferences clearly when dining out and ask for vegan options or modifications. While vegan options in Sardinia might not be as widespread as in larger cities, you can still find delicious plant-based meals and enjoy the beauty of the island.
