Simmer uncovered about 20 minutes; stir occasionally.
Cook rice according to package directions.
When sauce and rice are ready, poach eggs until all whites

In each of 2 small au gratin dishes, spoon 1/2 cup to 1 cup of rice. Add 1/2 cup to 1 cup of sauce to each.
Place 2 eggs in each dish. Top with shredded cheese.
Melt cheese, as in a small electric toaster oven
on broil, but do not cook eggs further.
Pass salsa for topping.
