Crazy smoothie

Since I want to make sure I don't go crazy and have soup every meal or chocolate or strawberry meal replacement shakes, I've tried to be a bit more creative with my smoothies. I want to make sure I'm getting enough nutrition too. I'm not a big fan of soup and when my dentist said I was on a liquid diet for at least 5 days I knew I had to find a way to 'survive'. :-) Here's my craziest combination but it is really tasty & made for a great lunch yesterday and today. My blender has been very busy these last few days. I took: A handful of Italian Salad Mix (romaine, red cabbage, frisé, spinach) (from a bag), 1 tbsp of ground flaxseed, 8 red grapes, 1/2 a banana, 1/2 a yellow apple, 1/2 cup of chocolate almond "milk", 1/4 cup of chocolate soy milk, 1tbsp of plain yogurt, and a little hot chocolate powder since my sugar cravings are getting pretty bad. :-) It was actually delicious. I've made it a few times.
