Butternut Squash and chick pea soup.

I'm always trying to find ways to use up veggies I get from the food bank in new and yummy ways and tonight I made the yummiest thing ever! I had a container of cubed butternut squash which I have never used before and I wanted to roast it off to puree for baby food so I tossed it with olive oil salt and pepper and roasted it at 350 for half hour. Let it cool. Then I threw this in the blender with a can of drained and rinsed chickpeas, some leftover chopped up red pepper, water, I had no garlic but do have an oil ceaser dressing so I used that, salt and pepper and blended it together, I heated it up for a bit then transferred it back to the blender and added milk to smooth it out a bit. Put it back in the pot and heat through and I topped mine with olive oil and balsamic vinegar before enjoying!..
