Vegan Yogurt

I love yogurt by my stomach does not, so I needed to find an alternative. I have tried different soy yogurts and even sheep yogurt, but I didn't like the texture. Almost like they added protein to them that gave a gritty consistency. I ended up passing on the yogurt until I found a recipe from happyherbivore.com.  I was very skeptical if this would work, but I thought since I had the ingredients, I would try it anyways. To my surprise, it was better than the store bought soy yogurts. I chose to add blueberries since my girls love blueberries and it was a hit. I thought it turned out a little tart, but the girls still loved it anyways. I can't wait to try this with different fruit.
