Directions
Cook the chourico in a large pot over medium-high heat until it starts to release its oil and gets a bit crispy. Toss in the chopped onion and cook everything together, stirring occasionally, until the onions soften—this should take about 5 minutes. Next, add the garbanzo beans, diced tomatoes, sweet potatoes, vegetable broth, and thyme. Crank the heat up to bring the soup to a boil, then lower it to medium-low. Cover the pot and let it simmer until the sweet potatoes are tender, which usually takes around 10 minutes. Once the potatoes are soft, stir in the baby spinach and let it cook for another 5 minutes until the greens wilt. Give the soup a taste and season with salt and pepper as you like before serving.
Serving Ideas
Serve the soup hot with crusty bread or a side salad for a complete meal. A sprinkle of fresh parsley or a dollop of sour cream can add a nice fresh touch. This soup also pairs well with a light white wine or a cold beer.
Storing Food Safely
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove to preserve the texture of the sausage and vegetables. This soup also freezes well—thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
