GOLF IN SOUTHERN EUROPE

The Costa del Sol has not been named the Costa del Sol without a good reason, it is simply a golfers paradise, there are some 72 golf courses in Andalusia of which 45 are situated along the Costa del Sol, four of those are rated in the top ten in Europe, add to that a fantastic all year round climate and you are most definitely in Golfing haven.

Kosher-Gourmet are famous for organising Golfing tours in Andalusia and the Algarve, combined together with visiting Jewish Heritage sites and Excellent Kosher gourmet food you will feel you are in Paradise.

Due to the increasing demand of golfers who enjoy playing 9 holes instead of the usual 18, some excellent smaller courses have sprung up on the Costa del Sol and Algarve and believe me it’s great fun….

I want to share with you a fantastic recipe of a great  healthy salad to have for  Breakfast the morning of a long  day of Golf, you can even take the left overs  to the golf course in a plastic container and have a spoon full when you start getting tired it will for sure boost up your energy level.
