I first came up with this recipe when I was looking for a healthy and satisfying smoothie that I could make quickly and easily. I had some frozen berries in my freezer and some hemp seeds in my pantry, so I decided to experiment. I added some almond milk, chia seeds, cinnamon, and vanilla extract, and the result was a delicious and nutritious smoothie that I've been making ever since.
