Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and diced onion. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant and translucent.
Add the diced carrot and celery to the pot, and cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until the vegetables begin to soften.
Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth, and bring the mixture to a boil.
If using shredded chicken, add it to the pot at this stage.
Stir in the egg noodles or small pasta, and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook according to the pasta's package directions (usually 7-10 minutes).
Once the pasta is tender, stir in the fresh spinach or kale. Cook for 1-2 minutes, just until the greens wilt.
Add the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine and taste for seasoning adjustments.
Ladle the soup into bowls, serve warm, and enjoy the comforting flavors.
