Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear in my question, these are just the 2
ingredients that are non-veggie. By leaving out the chorizo and also
substituting vegetable stock, I was wondering how that would change
the taste (last year when making this -everyone loved it!), and if
there is say, less salt in the veggie stock versus the chicken stock
that I might have to compensate for... that kind of thing.

If I make it the day before and refrigerate it, at what temperature
and for how long would I have to have to reheat it then?



As for the potatoes, the vinegar (very little) I heard helps keep them
from turning brown. But overnight, I worry about the Yuck factor too!
