Creating your own spice rub to flavor your meat is a great way to infuse a lot of pizazz without a lot of calories!

 

This spice rub was inspired by a recipe I found in Bobby Flay‘s cookbook from Mesa Grill.  It’s an excellent restaurant and known for it’s Southwestern flavors — just the way I like my food — spicy and delicious! It is excellent in Vegetarian Chili, Chicken Chili, and an awesome addition to Buttermilk Grilled Chicken

 

This recipe makes approximately 2 Cups and you can adjust it to suit your taste.
