Butternut Squash Soup

I love a hearty soup in the winter months. This soup could even be a meal on its own and freezes well. I usually make a big batch of it and freeze it in quart containers for another day!

Directions
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with foil. 

Place the squash, apple, garlic and onion on the baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to combine. Roast in the oven until fork tender, about 40 to 45 minutes.

In a large pot, bring the chicken broth and spices to a low boil over high heat. Add the squash, apple, garlic and onion. Lower the heat to a simmer, with the lid cracked, and cook for about 20 minutes.
