Organic Taco Dip Recipe and Eco Kids

Enjoy this delicious recipe with some organic tortilla chips or other dippers.  It's a great snack for little get togethers, and it's organic.  If you can't find ingredients that are organic, or if the organic ingredients are too expensive, buy the most natural items you can find.  Remember, even if you don't use 100% organic food, you will still lower your family's pesticide exposure with each organic purchase you do make.  If you don't use organic dairy products, try to find products labeled RBGH free.

Organic Taco Dip

 Ingredients:

• 1 container organic sour cream
• 1 block organic cream cheese

• 1/4 cup organic black olives, sliced
• 1/4 cup organic green onions, chopped
