For a vegan variation, substitute the chourico with an equal amount of soyrizo or another plant-based chorizo alternative. Feel free to enrich the soup with other vegetables like butternut squash or kale. For a richer depth of flavor, consider using roasted sweet potatoes. Adjust the amount of chourico to control the spiciness of the soup. A pinch of smoked paprika can further enhance the smoky notes.

Incorporate the garbanzo beans (with their liquid), diced tomatoes, sweet potato, vegetable broth, and thyme. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer gently until the sweet potatoes yield to the touch, approximately 10 minutes.
