Instructions:
- In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic, bell pepper, and zucchini. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.
- Pour in the diced tomatoes with their juice and stir well. Allow the mixture to simmer for a couple of minutes.

- Stir in the chopped spinach or kale and let it wilt into the soup.
- Add the lemon juice for a bright and fresh flavor. Adjust the seasoning if needed.
