Ingredients

Sweat leeks in olive oil until soft, about 3 minutes. Add kale and cook just until wilted.
Add broth and cook for 30 minutes on low heat. Let cool off the heat for 10-15 minutes. Carefully pour soup contents into Vitamix container and secure the lid.
Start the blender on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to its highest speed. Blend for 1 minute 30 seconds. Season with salt and pepper.

If desired, remove 1 cup of kale/leek mixture before adding broth, and place in bowls before pouring soup to add texture.
