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.
