Here's what some Food Network hosts say is in their holiday fridge:

"Artisan cheeses, assorted salamis and sausages, champagne and lots of wine ... and, all the ingredients for a family holiday dinner." — Emeril Lagasse, "Emeril Live!"

"Butter, ham, cream cheese, bacon and Mayo." — Paula Deen, "Paula's Home Cooking" and "Paula's Party"

"Marinated olives, a garlicky bean dip, frozen shrimp (for a quick shrimp cocktail), red grapes and sparkling wine: All for an impromptu holiday party." — Ellie Krieger, "Healthy Appetite"

"Cold cuts — prosciutto, capicolla, Columbus dry salami, sopresetta and hot coppa, killer cheeses, five different mustards, a big ole prime rib, a couple bottles of Korbel champagne, some pizza for holiday cooking nourishment." — Guy Fieri, "Guy's Big Bite"

"I always stock prosciutto, salami, mozzarella, Parmigiano-Reggiano and locatelli, Italy's most famous — and incredibly addictive — pecorino cheese." — Michael Chiarello, "Easy Entertaining"

"Cubes of pancetta, to be fried and turn any vegetable into something special, walnuts, in their shells, beautiful pomegranates to add red-jewel sparkle, lychees to make a gorgeous fruit display, red grapes ditto, and I try and buy vine leaves to pile them onto as well." — Nigella Lawson, "Nigella Feasts"

"I always make and freeze a variety of foolproof snacks to pop in the oven or microwave for drop-by guests. I keep slice-and-bake sugar cookies, because I can top them with cream cheese and sugar or fruit jam and have a pretty plate in about 10 minutes. And I stash boxed truffles in the freezer to either thaw and serve or give as spur-of-the-moment gifts." — Sandra Lee, "Semi-Homemade With Sandra Lee"

"Fresh cranberries, heavy cream, lots of butter, sage and rosemary, a big jug of really good maple syrup." — Dave Lieberman, "Dave's Deal"

"Turkey and dressing and lots of fresh veggies." — Bobby Deen, "Road Tasted"

"Organic whole milk for the baby, lots of champagne and a bottle of Bailey's for us (it's our tradition to drink Baileys and eat warm chocolate chip cookies when we decorate our Christmas tree), some really fine imported cheeses for drop-in guests and, if you catch us on December 23rd, at least seven different types of seafood for the Christmas Eve seafood feast." — Dan Smith and Steve McDonagh, "Party Line With the Hearty Boys"

"Fruit cake made with Gummi bears, Gummi worms, Twizzlers and jelly beans." — George Duran, "Ham on the Street"

"A bottle of Proseco, panettone and cookie dough in the freezer to make holiday cookies as gifts." — Giada De Laurentiis, "Everyday Italian"
