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!

I love making lassi, maybe that's something you can try. There are lots of different types of lassi, different tastes sweet and salty, but also different consistency.
I usually use half yoghurt and half water as the base, which gives you a consistency of buttermilk. But you can add as much or little water (and/or milk) as you prefere. From there you can add fruits or spices you like.
Here is a Plain lassi recipe.
Here are some Indian flavor options. They're making a thicker lassi, but you can easily adjust the water.
This is really interesting, I’ve never heard of it. I’ll give it a try, though I’m not big on creamy drinks. I don’t think I’ve ever tasted saffron before.
