1 tsp	grapeseed or olive oil
1 large	yellow onion
8 ounces	red potato
8 ounces	parsnip
1 medium	carrot
3 cups	water
1/8 tsp	salt
1/8 tsp	fresh ground black pepper
1/4 tsp	dried thyme leaves
1/4 tsp	dried oregano leaves
2	bay leaves
8 ounces	tilapia filets
1/8 tsp	salt

Place the grapeseed oil in a medium sauce pan over medium heat. Add the yellow onion and cook for about 5 minutes stirring frequently.

Add the potatoes, parsnips and carrots and stir. Cook for about 10 minutes. Stir often so as to not let the vegetables brown. Add the water and reduce the heat to medium-low.

Add the salt, pepper, thyme, oregano and bay. Simmer for about 20 - 30 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften. Stir the soup frequently. When the vegetables have cooked to the point that they are soft but not mushy add the fish. Add the 1/8 tsp salt.

Cook for about 5 minutes until the fish begins to flake. Serve.
