Food 911! DU Cooks to the rescue!

My mother, worn out after years of preparing Thanksgiving meals, has requested that I cook the Thanksgiving meal this time around. I've decided that I want to do a little twist to the traditional entree, which is the turkey, as you know is the centerpiece of the meal itself.

I don't have the time to be cooking a whole turkey in the kitchen for hours, and I want to spend more time on the side dishes. So, I'm thinking about having boneless turkey breasts, and stuffing them. The only problem is that I have no idea what to stuff them with, and whether I should sear them first before putting them in the oven. I would really appreciate any advice you guys might have for this unique dilemma.

As for the rest of the meal, I know what I want to prepare :-) The starter course should be butternut bisque or a mixed greens salad with cranberries, walnuts, goat cheese and honey viniagrette. I'm thinking that I'll go with the mixed greens salad instead of the butternut bisque. I want to prepare roasted garlic mashed potatoes, and add some shredded gruyere cheese to the potatoes. I'm also thinking about making maple glazed sweet yams with pecans. I'm also going to be making a fresh cranberry-orange sauce from scratch to pair with the turkey breasts. I also want to make rustic apple tarts or else have my younger brother make the chocolate rum truffles which everyone in the family loves.

Am I leaving anything out?
