Instructions
  1. Cook split peas according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a large pot with a lid, heat olive oil over medium and sauté the mushrooms for about 2 minutes.
  3. Add onion, garlic, poblanos, half of the cilantro, potatoes, hominy and stir to blend. Season with a pinch of salt, cook about 2 minutes.
  4. Add salsa, water and salt, cover, and simmer for about 20 minutes at a medium-low temperature until potatoes are cooked through. Stir in cooked peas and allow them to warm up, about 3 minutes. (Don’t continue to cook them for too long, they will get mushy!)
  5. Add remaining chopped cilantro. Serve in bowls and allow people to top with garnishes. (See recipe notes for garnish suggestions)
