1 medium onion, diced
2 carrots, diced
2 stalks celery, diced

Heat olive oil in a stockpot over medium heat. Cook onions, carrots, celery, and garlic until soft. Add remaining ingredients and bring soup to boil over high heat. Reduce to low and cover, stirring occasionally, until sweet potatoes are cooked, about 30 minutes.
