■ Serves 4 ■ Prep 10 mins ■ Cook 10 mins

400g penne
 200g bag shredded kale
 100g streaky bacon, chopped
 1 medium red onion, finely sliced
 100g soft mild goat’s cheese
 grated parmesan, to serve (optional)

1 Cook the pasta following pack instructions. Add the kale for the final 2 mins, then drain, reserving a little of the cooking liquid.

2 Meanwhile, dry-fry the bacon in a non-stick pan until crisp. Remove from the pan and drain off most of the fat, leaving behind about 1 tsp. Gently fry the onion in the fat for 2-3 mins until soft.

3 Tip the cooked pasta and kale into the pan, then stir through the bacon and goat’s cheese. Add a little of the pasta cooking water if the mixture seems a bit dry. Serve in bowls scattered with the grated parmesan, if you like.
