Each half-hour episode of "Everyday Food" offers quick, easy and practical solutions to the challenges of everyday cooking and includes easy-to-make recipes along with smart tips and kitchen techniques. The cast consists of four home-grown talents from the kitchens of Martha Stewart Living.

This episode is all about planning ahead. Sarah starts with a tender roast beef with peppers, onions and potatoes. Margot uses the extra roast beef for our beef mango wraps. Healthy and colorful, it’s a fantastic sandwich to have for lunch. For something more substantial for dinner, serve the wraps with a bowl of black bean relish. With the extra mangoes, Emma prepares a quick dessert: mango brown betty.

Lucinda makes a spice-rubbed turkey breast with sweet potatoes that is a fast and hearty dinner that the whole family will enjoy. We sauté escarole and garlic to complete the meal. Allie uses the extra turkey for our turkey with two salads: a fresh, crisp spinach salad and a pasta salad tossed with mushrooms and dried cranberries. Smart planning and good eating, with "Everyday Food."
