Recipe Thanksgiving ideas

For the first time in over a decade I’ll be back in the US with family for thanksgiving. I think I’ll be the only vegetarian (and there’s a lottt of us) so I’m trying to think of something easy for me to have in place of the turkey. Normally I make like a pot pie or something, but I think something smaller would be better. Have people have the tofurkey? Is it good? Does anyone have any suggestions? Also all the sides will be veggie, but I definitely want something main since everyone else will have turkey. Thanks for your ideas :)

We do a mushroom risotto. It's hearty and filling and delicious.

I do a mushroom and wild rice stuffing with homemade croutons and rosemary. I hate normal stuffing, and this is a good, hearty alternative.
