Chickpea and Winter Squash Soup

"This soup isn't a puree like with most winter squash soups. I don't have an immersion blender or a regular blender, so I left the veggies chunky (in a small, spoonable dice.) I'm sure it's just a good (maybe better) all blended up. I served this with brown rice on the side because I didn't want the soup to be too thick."
