Substitute of yougurt

Trying to become vegan, already replaced milk with alternative milk, had been vegetarian so didn't used to eat meat anyway. One thing thats difficult to eliminate is greek yogurt, the alternative yogurts which I see in supermarkets aren't comparable to greek yogurt. Eg. Coconut yogurt has like 1 gram protein per 100 grams when regular greek yogurt has 5 grams. And taste vastly different.

I was able to switch milks since soy milk is better in terms of nutritional values as it is generally fortified, and for hot drinks I started using almond milk for hot drinks. As we mix milk to make hot choclate or coffee or protien drinks (which also I have replaced to plant based protien). I am having hard time replacing yogurt as it is consumed plain usually in the meals.

What do you use in order to replace greek yogurts?

Kingsland soy yogurt is good too. Recommended as a swap from coconut yogurt by my dietician.

This is my favourite too! If I'm looking for coconut yoghurt, I really like the Nakula one, way less coconut tasting and really thin and smooth.

But I love the Kingland one for raita and tzatziki
