I am not one who eats much bread, but I love to bake it, and have many that I share with....Baking bread gives me help when I need to beat things around....
Sage Potato Rolls
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
2/3 cup water
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
3/4 cup instant mashed potato flakes
2 tablespoons snipped fresh sage or 2 teaspoons dried sage, crushed
4 1/4 - 4 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 packages active dry yeast
Directions
In a medium saucepan bring buttermilk, water, sugar, butter, and salt just to boiling. (Mixture may appear curdled.) Remove from heat. Stir in potato flakes; let stand until temperature is 120F to 130F (about 15 minutes). Stir in snipped or dried sage.
In a large mixing bowl stir together 1-1/2 cups of the all-purpose flour and the yeast. Add potato mixture. Beat with an electric mixer on low to medium speed for 30 seconds, scraping sides of bowl constantly. Beat on high speed for 3 minutes. Using a wooden spoon, stir in as much of the remaining flour as you can.
Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough of the remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic (6 to 8 minutes total). Shape into a ball. Place in a lightly greased bowl; turn once to grease the surface of dough. Cover and let rise in a warm place until double in size (45 to 60 minutes).
Punch down dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide in half. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes. Grease 2 large baking sheets; set aside. Divide each half of the dough into 12 pieces. Shape pieces into balls. Arrange on prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Loosely cover; let rise until nearly double in size (about 30 minutes).
Bake rolls in a 350F oven about 12 minutes or until golden. Remove rolls from baking sheets; cool slightly on wire racks. Serve warm. Makes 24 rolls.

Aunt Connie’s Best Chicken Salad Ever, East Carolina Style
1 pound chicken, breasts only
1-3 celery stalks, peeled and finely chopped
1 spoonful Sweet Pickle Cubes,* finely chopped
1 spoonful Dill Pickle Cubes,* finely chopped
1 spoonful dijon mustand
Several tablespoons Duke’s mayonnaise
1.Poach chicken breasts, do not overcook.
2. Meanwhile finely chop celery & pickles
3. Remove chicken and let cool. Cut into small slivers with scissors.
4. Place cut up chicken in bowl. Add celery. Add one spoonful Dijon mustard to start (at the end you can adjust and add more). Add a minimum one spoonful each of sweet and dill salad cubes (I add more sweet than dill, and several spoonfuls).
5. Scoop out mayonnaise, starting with a couple of tablespoons, mix well. Keep adding mayo until mixed well. Adjust mustard and salad cubes as needed.
7. Place in fridge for several hours to allow flavors to marry.
I would put chicken in food processor! I know it says "spoonful" but it says "adjust to taste."

Thank you for the correction,
I saw the recipe for an "Easy" meal with a few ingredients by Bluff.. and I just thought it would be something great to do over night in a slow cooker.
Personally I am the worst cook and look forward to easy meals. I could not add but learn from everyone here.

I just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed the potato & carrot dish. I used Ore-Ida Shredded Hash browns and a bag of shredded organic carrots and it was SO fast and easy.
My non-veggie eating DD thought the carrots were shredded cheddar and I didn't tell her otherwise! LOL
Thanks for sharing it. I will use it often.
