Eggs, rice and peas all cook in a single skillet and the whole meal takes you only half an hour from start to service. This dish is pretty enough for company, too.

In large skillet, stir together rice, soup and water. Cover. Bring to boiling. Reduce heat to simmering. Simmer covered 5 minutes. Stir in frozen peas. Simmer covered 5 minutes longer. Stir in mushrooms, if desired. Make 6 indentations in rice mixture. Break an egg into each indentation. Cover. Continue cooking over low to medium heat until eggs are almost set, 3 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese, if desired. Cover. Cook until whites are completely set and yolks begin to thicken but are not hard, about 5 to 7 minutes.

To separate peas in package, gently hit against counter.
