Floyd,

I don't believe Ms. Dash would work in breadmaking the way that 
salt does. Salt is not just for flavor; it "regulates" the 
action of yeast by killing some of it, and also strengthens the 
gluten. Other list members may have no-salt recipes. I would 
use less yeast and fewer rises. Make sure you knead well and 
try to make an interesting bread with flavorful ingredients to 
make up for the lack of salt flavor. The Ms Dash might help 
with the flavor.
