For dietary purposes, I’ve been told to start including probiotic rich food in my diet and I figure since people in my house already like yogurt that’s the best way to go. But I absolutely hate the texture of yogurt. How can I change it and still enjoy the health benefits? I don’t love smoothies, but I’ll make one occasionally with yogurt. But I’d prefer to have some variety with this. Adding granola is alright, and definitely helps but even still I find myself just grossed out after two spoonfuls. Is there anything I can do? Is freezing it and turning it into something like frozen yogurt going to kill the cultures? It’s sad, because this is the only food I absolutely cannot seem to find a way to enjoy!

    No help on the yogurt, but a suggestion. Have you tried Miso soup? It’s really good for your gut health. Don’t get instant, get the real stuff/paste. It lasts a long time and you can use it in other foods as a flavor enhancer. Try mild yellow first. I personally love the red. Avoid the Hawaiian version unless you like sweet things. And never boil it, it kills the good stuff in it.

      I love miso soup! I do try to make it myself, but it’s hard finding grocery stores that sell the paste near me. But anytime I am in the city, I always grab a tub to last me a few months! That and a thing of kimchi, always feel great when I can eat those daily.

        If you have a Winco in your area they carry it in the produce cold cases.
