Neither of us will eat the dark meat only the breast. A few years ago I bought one of those boxed butterball breast and stuffing kits The meat was good but the stuffing was gross, like wet stovetop stuffing.A cooked turkey yields 1/3-1/2 it's fresh weight in edible meat, therefore you'll get approx max of 4.5 lbs for 2 people. The dinner; a couple sandwiches and turkey soup next couple days. Wouldn't be any waste really.
