TV cooking competition champ, San Diego native on how to spice up your holiday party

A best-selling cookbook author and San Diego's culinary superstar has simple tips to wow your holiday guests.

SAN DIEGO — Chef Claudia Sandoval is San Diego's hometown hero and a Food Network success story. She often fuses different culinary techniques with her favorite Mexican dishes. In fact, that's how she earned the title of "Master Chef."

Claudia is now a judge on Telemundo's MasterChef Latino, but you don't need a TV show to impress at this year's holiday party. Claudia says you just need good visual presentation and bit of Tajin seasoning

"People eat with their eyes," said Claudia.
