Ensure the spinach and kale are thoroughly drained to prevent soggy balls. Squeeze out excess moisture with your hands or a clean kitchen towel. For a richer flavor, sauté the chopped onion in a tablespoon of olive oil until softened before adding to the mixture. Feel free to experiment with different herbs and spices to customize the flavor profile to your liking. A pinch of red pepper flakes can add a touch of heat. These herbed balls can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before baking. To freeze, bake the balls as directed, let them cool completely, and then freeze in a single layer on a baking sheet. Once frozen, transfer to a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 2 months. Reheat in a preheated oven or microwave.
