Instructions

Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until soft and lightly golden, about 6 to 8 minutes.
Add broth, water, broccoli, sweet potato and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, 20 to 25 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
Use an immersion blender to puree the soup, or transfer to a blender and blend in batches. Season with more salt and pepper, if desired.
Serve topped with grated cheese and slices of bread, if desired.
