Blackberry Chocolate Pistachio Smoothie recipe is a refreshing little smoothie that is full of healthy goodness. 

Blackberry Chocolate Pistachio Smoothie 3

I have been playing with this Blackberry Chocolate Pistachio Smoothie recipe trying to get the flavor just right.  I just knew that the combination of Blackberries, Chocolate, Pistachio and Coconut would be delicious.  I was right, sadly the day that I finally got the recipe exactly how I wanted it I didn’t get to enjoy it.  I had just taken a few drinks of my smoothie and decided to wash the dishes.  One dish that needed washing was a medium pyrex bowl, it slipped out of my hand when I was rinsing it and it fell into the sink, shattering into a thousand pieces.  There was glass everywhere, in my garbage disposal, under my stove and refrigerator, in the cracks of my hardwood floor and the sills of my windows.  In the middle of all that glass sat my perfectly ‘almost full’ glass of Blackberry Chocolate Pistachio Smoothie.  Sadly, after I spent forever making sure all the glass was out of the garbage disposal (not a fun job), I had to pour out the smoothie.  Though thankfully I had the recipe written and ready to share with all of you.

I used Silk Unsweetened Coconutmilk in my smoothie.  I have completely switched over to Coconut and Coconut-Almond Milk here in the Stafford house and even the boys are now drinking Coconut Milk.   I encourage you guys to visit www.silk.com/coconutmilk for a coupon to try Silk Coconutmilk and find more recipe inspiration.

Adding the Protein Powder makes this a great pre or post workout.  Check out my post on what to eat before and after your workout and if you want to learn the basics for building your own smoothie check out my post how to make a healthy smoothie in 6 simple steps.
