For a richer flavor, brown the chorizo in the pot before adding the beans and water. If you don't have beef soup bones, you can use a ham hock or smoked pork shank for a similar depth of flavor. Adjust the amount of kale and cabbage to your preference. Some people prefer a soup with more greens. This soup tastes even better the next day, as the flavors have time to meld together. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
