By the time you get home from work ... if necessary. The taste of autumn is here, and there's no better way to savor it than with a warm bowl of crockpot butternut squash soup!

It should taste vibrant and squash-y. Adjust seasonings as necessary, puréeing after any additions to fully incorporate. Ladle hot soup into bowls. Gently swirl in cream. Top with crispy chickpeas.
