Make it

Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook onion until translucent but not brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Add rice. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes more. Add peas, broth, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer until rice is tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Sprinkle cheese on top and refrigerate.

Cheweee tip

Package the cheese separately for your child to sprinkle on at lunchtime.
