Okay, quick question:

[conuly]

Where can one buy a large container of unflavored soy yogurt?

Because, while eating my pumpkin tomato soup today (with sour cream on top for me, but not the kiddos, I'm afraid), I had the best idea ever!

I need to get some yogurt at once and proceed to make raita. Not Indian raita, but Tex-Mex raita, to take the place of sour cream. Take a minute to think how wonderful that would be. Mmmmmm....

But since the baby (this is her official name now - "I not Eva - I THE BABY!") can't have dairy and Angelique can't have dairy and Jenn can't have dairy and Elise and I probably shouldn't have all that cow's milk either, it's either soy yogurt or goat yogurt, and I suspect soy is going to be easier to find around here.

Any ideas?

Depends on the recipe you use - it's kinda like asking how one makes ice cream, y'know.

Jenn makes a good one with just yogurt, vinegar, cucumbers, onions, and pepper, but I don't know the exact proportions.

I'll have to look it up one day and give it a whirl. I'm sure there's a low fat version that would fit into my diet :)

Generally, it seems the only fat in the recipe comes from the yogurt itself. If you use a low-fat yogurt, that should solve your problem. Though, come to think of it, maybe Jenn also used sugar. I know that's non-fat, but you might be there wanting to avoid too much of that too :)

I can skip the sugar or use Splenda instead. And yes, trying to avoid pretty much everything that's tasty not good for me.

I dont remember us ever putting sugar in it. :/

and now I want raita. but first I want an unflooded house and cabinets without mold in them...first things first, yes?
