Saute garlic and oil for a few minutes.Add cut up vegetables ( w/ out greens) and saute for about 3-4 minutes. Add water and then lentils. After about 5 minutes add in the greens and the bullion. Stir and cook at medium heat until it comes to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for about 30-45 min. Keep an eye to see if there is more water needed. Add more if you like a thinner soup.
