Blend in flour and salt. Divide batter in half. To one half, add almond extract, chopped pistachios, and enough green food color to tint batter a light green (2-4 drops). To other half of batter, stir in melted chocolate and chocolate chips; mix well. Spoon batter alternately into pan, checkerboard fashion. Swirl batters to get a marbled effect.
