Butternut Squash Soup

I'm just getting into this whole squash thing.  I've never had butternut squash soup before, but it sounded good and it is!

Ingredients

1 butternut squash, sliced and quartered
1 sliced apple
carrots

1 pint chicken stock

2 cloves garlic
1/4 c onion
2 stalks celery, sliced

1 can garbanzo beans, pureed

Salt, pepper, oregano, cayenne

Shredded mozzarella or cheddar

Preheat oven to 350.  Roast the squash, apple, and carrots until tender.  Peel and slice the squash, then add it to a pot with the apples, carrots, garlic, onion, celery, and 1/2 c chicken stock.  Simmer until everything is soft.  Transfer to food processor and puree.  Return to pot with the rest of the stock, pureed beans, and season to taste.  Add the cheese to taste.  Simmer until it reaches the desired consistency.
