Our Turkey Day family dinner at our farm usually consists of 2 to 4 people. I haven't fixed a turkey for a long time because there aren't any small turkeys. The last time I bought one, I bought the smallest one I could, but we still wound up throwing a lot out.
I wanted to try to stay with tradition, but didn't want to waste a bunch of food, so I substituted Cornish hens for turkey. It works well and not much waste.
The rest of the 'fixins' are the traditional Turkey Day stuff: homemade egg noodles, dressing, sweet potatoes, rolls, etc.
One Thanksgiving a few years ago, the city part of the family decided to have barbeque catered in for Thanksgiving. My mom was not pleased. She called and asked if I would pick her up and take her with me to the farm so she could have at least somewhat of a traditional Thanksgiving meal. Of course, I agreed. We had a nice visit and a good meal.
If you want to have a traditional meal, then I suggest you find someplace that prepares turkey, dressing, whatever you like, go pick it up and take it with you. It might not go over well, but in my opinion, Thanksgiving wouldn't be Thanksgiving without the bird.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
