Preheat the oven to 350 F. Great a 9x13” baking dish.
Tear the kale into pieces and place it in the baking dish. It may be overflowing, but that’s good, it will cook down in the oven. Add the onion, toss well. Add salt & pepper.
Toss the cheeses together in a bowl. Add almost all of the cheese to the kale, tossing it well to combine.
Bake for 45 min until top is golden & crisp & edges are bubbly.
Note: this can be made ahead of time, but best reheated right before serving.
