How to Make It
Step 1
In a medium-sized pot, combine the butter, kale, and spinach over medium heat. Let the butter melt and have the vegetables cook down until they are heavily wilted.
Step 2
Season the ingredients with the salt and pepper, and pour in the chicken broth. Bring the broth to a strong simmer, with the lid on.
Step 3
Stir in the heavy cream. Remove the pot from the stove, and use either an emulsion blender or a food processor to blend the soup into a consistent, creamy mixture. Return the pot to medium heat.
Step 4
Allow the soup to simmer for a few minutes so it reduces slightly. Then, stir in the parmesan cheese. Stir until the cheese is completely melted.
Step 5
Enjoy hot and steamy!
