Downton Sundays: Lady Mary's Scrambled Eggs
Prep time
Cook time
Total time
This recipe is slightly adapted from The Unofficial Downton Abbey Cookbook by Emily Ansara Baines. We have been trying to maintain a low-sodium diet and since cream cheese contains sodium, we did not use as much salt as the recipe in the cookbook called for. We decreased the amount of cream cheese that was used in the cookbook also. We also used milk and increased the amount of chives.
