For a vegetarian version, omit the ham and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. Consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika for a smoky flavor. To add a bit of heat, include a pinch of cayenne pepper or a finely chopped jalapeño pepper along with the other vegetables. The soup can be made ahead of time and reheated. The flavors will deepen even more as it sits.
