Ingredients:

  • 1 (14 1/2-oz) can vegetable broth
  • 2 3/4 cups water
  • 1 cup plus 2 tbsp arborio rice, uncooked
  • 1/4 cup diced dried tomato (packed without oil)
  • 1/3 cup commercial roasted red pepper, drained and chopped
  • 1 tsp dried italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp pepper

Directions:

  1. Combine broth and water in a medium saucepan; place over medium heat. Cover and bring to a simmer; reduce heat to low, and keep warm. (Do not boil.)
  2. Coat a large saucepan with cooking spray; place over medium-low heat until hot. Add rice and 1 cup simmering broth mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until most of liquid is absorbed. Add 1 1/2 cups broth mixture, 1/2 cup at a time, cooking and stirring constantly until each 1/2 cup addition is absorbed. Stir in tomato. Add remaining 2 cups broth mixture, 1/2 cup at a time, cooking and stirring constantly until each 1/2 cup addition is absorbed. (Rice will be tender and will have a creamy consistency.) Add peas and remaining ingredients, stirring until cheese melts; serve immediately.
