Step 1
Begin by bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to the package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel-lined plate.
Step 3
Add the tomatoes, garlic and green onions, plus a little salt and pepper, then toss to coat in the bacon fat. Add the cream and broth then bring to a boil. Allow to cook and thicken, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the pasta and toss to coat.
Step 4
Lay the baby kale onto a platter. Top with the hot pasta, sprinkle over the bacon and, using a spoon, dot the pesto onto the top. Garnish with the basil leaves and enjoy.
