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!

    If you’re in the USA, Chobani full fat and Oui by Yoplait are ok, but there’s added sugar. Whipping it with a whisk or handmixer will make it more like a mousse texture. There’s a decent weight gain powder made with pea protein, Orgain that has probiotics. It says use water to mix with, but I use whole milk. If you’re not trying to gain, water is probably fine , if you are trying to gain, add a dollop of peanut or almond butter.

    Refrigerated sauerkraut has probiotics, but I don’t care for it.
