"This is out of the Fall Woman's Day magazine...you can make this vegetarian by omitting the chorizo and substitute vegetable broth for the chicken broth...I think adding in some rotisserie chicken would be a nice touch for a more hearty meal..."

Delicious and so easy! I bought the wrong type of chorizo, which seemed to work out for us and used dried thyme. Wonderful soup! Thanks for sharing!

Delicious soup! The fresh thyme is just perfect, did use heavy cream and subbed the chorizo for bay scallops, which I added about 20 minutes before serving. With the remaining soup I added 6 oz of frozen spinach and peas to stretch it for another meal. DH was over the moon with this soup. Thank you for sharing Teresa! Made for Billboard Recipe Tag.
