INSTRUCTIONS
Original recipe used 3/4 C cheese...I lowered it to lower the fat count. Preheat oven to 400 deg F. In a 1-quart ovenproof pot, combine oil, onion and salt over moderate heat. Stir to coat onions with oil and cook until onions are soft and translucent, 3-4 minutes. Add rice, stirring to coat with oil, and cook 1 minute. Add broth and tomato sauce and bring just to a simmer over moderate heat. Stir in half the cheese. Smooth top with back of a spoon. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Cover baking dish. Place dish in center of oven. Bake until rice is cooked through and has absorbed most of liquid, 30-35 minutes. Rice should be moist but not soupy. Serve immediately as a vegetable side dish or main dish. Serves 4-6. Published 1/31/96 in the San Jose Mercury News. Copied with permission. Converted by MM_Buster v2.0l.
