Hi~ I just joined after reading ALL of the posts!! I was so impressed when I saw that this is a fairly new club and it has 700+ messages. Everyone seems so nice and helpful!! I don't have any recipes for appetizers or dips but I will share with you a recipe I have been making since I found it!
3/4 cup warm water 1 tb olive oil 3/4 cup romm temp. mashed potatoes 1/2 tsp salt 1 tb sugar 3 cups all-purpose flour 1 1/2 tsp yeast
Put all ingredients in machine according to manufactuer's instructions. Set for 2 lb. dough setting. When dough is done take out and seperate into portions. I weigh them out to 4 ounces each, this makes nice size hamburger rolls. I have also made a batch of 3 ounce rolls for hubby to take sandwiches to work with and these are a nice size also. Put on greased (I use cooking spray) baking sheet, cover and let rise until nearly doubled. Preheat oven to 425 degrees (I just tried Alt+0176 for degree sign and got an error message...eeeekk!!). Cook in preheated oven until they start to brown (I never keep track...sorry for no exact time, should be about 10-15 minutes).
