Shrimp Cocktail, Squash and Champagne - The San Francisco Chronicle in 60 Seconds">

Shrimp cocktail is an effortless holiday dish -- and is made even easier with a variety of reviewed and rated premade sauces.
"Squash explorations lead to a delectable journey," writes Tara Duggan, who delves into the different types available and supplies a recipe for Winter Squash Soup with Kale, and a Cilantro-Almond Pesto for topping.
Grazalema Payoyo is a "cheese worth remembering," combining tangy goat's milk with sweeter sheep's milk.
As Champagne imports to the U.S. plummet in the face of recession, stateside drinkers may get the opportunity to appreciate lower prices.
Suspecting a "proven correlation between the holidays and the onset of cold and flu season," Chronicle staff writer Amanda Gold recommends "Christmas feasts that won't wear out the cook."
