A Thanksgiving menu for two that hits all the right notes—leftovers guaranteed.
Listen, it happens. Maybe you're still recovering from the flu. Maybe you can't afford the plane ticket, or you just can't deal with the hellscape of our country's public transit. Maybe last year you insulted your aunt's pie; maybe last year your aunt insultedWe've put together a menu for those who may be doing Thanksgiving for one or two, to offer inspiration for those of you who have, either by accident or design, found themselves without a place to go on Turkey Day.
One final note: All of these recipes were chosen with an eye to ease of preparation, because even though you want a nice spread, you don't want the dinner to be a burden. That is, except for the pie. The pie is a bit work-intensive, yes; it has several steps that might seem to require you to go above and beyond the call of duty. But it is a fantastic pie, and it is well worth the effort, and the best part about cooking it for two people is that you get half of it all to yourself.J.
The whole process for both the turkey breast and stuffing takes two hours, from fridge to plate, so it's perfect for a low-key Thanksgiving for just you and a companion. We roast the whole turkey breast directly on top of the stuffing, which is enriched by the rendered turkey fat. When the stuffing is cooked through, simply take it out and let the breast continue cooking until it hits 150°F. Then, while the turkey rests, you can pop the stuffing back in the oven to crisp up the top.
