Protein smoothie question

I found some recipes for protein smoothies I would like to try. My question is are the smoothies if made with protein powder, fruit or SF pudding mix considered a liquid or a meal?

I am pretty sure that it is still considered a liquid, even when you put puding mix or fruit in it--I say this for two reasons.  One--in our yellow books (from St. Vincent's) they encourage you to flavor your protein drink with SF pudding and Two the last time I was at the doctor's, the nutritionist told me to blend some strawberries into my protein shake to make it take better and she didn't say anything about it not still being a liquid--but if you are still in doubt--call your nutritionist or doc!

I was thinking the same thing, I just wanted to be sure. Thanks for your input.

I was told to use it has a snack since I was adding fruit to it.
