Sauté the garlic in olive oil until soft, about 2 minutes then add carrot, celery, bell pepper and zucchini, oregano, thyme and rosemary and sauté for 5 minutes.
Add the lentils, diced tomatoes, tomato paste and vegetable broth. Simmer on low heat until lentils are tender. Add the kale and stir until the kale is wilted.
You can eat the soup as is with the vegetable chunks or you can use a blender to create a creamy soup. Sometimes I blend half and keep half chunky.
Serve warm with lemon wedges, crushed red pepper, fresh parsley and Parmesan cheese.
