  2. Add the carrot, celery, onion and salt. Sautee, stirring occasionally for about 5 minutes until the vegetables become translucent.
  3. Add the greens and vegetable stock. Bring to a simmer and cook for 30 minutes.
  4. Add the cilantro and lemon.
  5. In 2 cup increments, transfer the mixture to a blender and blend until smooth. Hot liquids expand more than cold so this is to ensure there is not a soup explosion in your kitchen! Transfer back into a stockpot and stir to make sure the flavor is consistent. Season with remaining salt, to taste.
