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?

Hey, it looks like I might be able to make that recipe! I looked up recipes last night, and the first one I found included heavy whipping cream*, so I just gave up right there.

Oh yes, I love that it's totally milk free, and she's right - you really can't tell. I mean, I like the sour cream to cool my mouth, but that's all :)

Though I make it a *little* differently than she does. I don't drag out the blender, I just chop the tomatoes small, and since it's lumpier already, I add things like fine chopped carrots and minced garlic and corn kernels.
