stephanieserblowski Hey there while trying to find a similar solution myself, I found that in the desktop application you can go to Calendar, if you select Meet Now you can join the meeting by yourself, invite others if you want, and record. After recording if finished/meeting ended, it will automatically upload it into MS Stream where you can trim, edit, add captions, share, and download videos.
I explored several options mentioned here, but I don't have the licensing for many of them so I will be using this option.
Wanted to give back to a helpful thread.
Thanks!

ellenniles Thank you! This is the best option I have found since I cannot create a Chat with only myself. 🙂
Thank you ellenniles. This is exactly what I hoping I could do so thanks for posting this!
ellenniles Thank you! I was looking for a workaround to the minimum participants to enable the "start recording" in a Teams Meeting. When I tried the "meet now" from a channel, it did not work, but when I tried the "Meet Now" launched from the Calendar within the Teams app, it did! 😉
I was looking to solve for same question posed by OP, trying to use MS Teams and Stream, for recording audio overlaid to screen capture recording of selected window/display, as we would do for short training/tutorial how-tos and quick tips videos. The other solutions offered above did not work for me - except for the suggested third party route of OBS, which I will still look into 🙂
