Chili powder is a widely used spice in various soups, stews, and -- of course -- chilis. It can also be used
as a component of marinades or dry rubs for meats as well as incorporated into burgers. Chili powder is
actually a fairly healthy seasoning, with significant amounts of several beneficial nutrients.
Chili powder is also rich in several important minerals. One tablespoon contains 143.7 milligram of potassium,
or 4.1 percent of your daily recommendation; 22.7 milligram of phosphorus, or 2.3 percent of your daily
recommendation; 20.9 milligrams of calcium, or 2.1 percent of your daily recommendation; and 1.1 milligrams of
iron, or 5.9 percent of your daily recommendation. It also contains 0.2 mg each of zinc and manganese and 0.5
micorgrams of selenium.
