INSTRUCTIONS
Bring large pot of salted water to a boil for pasta. Stir together 1 tbsp olive oil, hemp seeds, basil, nutritional yeast, and a pinch of pepper in small bowl. (4-serving meal: use 2 tbsp olive oil)
Add pasta to boiling water and cook for 9 minutes. Add kale and cook until pasta is al dente and kale is wilted, about 1 minute. Reserve ½ cup pasta water, drain pasta and kale, and set aside. Reserve pot for next step. (4-serving meal: reserve 1½ cups pasta water)
Add 1 tbsp olive oil and garlic to same pot and cook over low heat, stirring frequently, until fragrant and softened, about 1 minute. Add herb garlic cheese, tomato powder, butter, sun-dried tomatoes, and reserved pasta water and stir until smooth. (4-serving meal: use 2 tbsp olive oil)(TIP: For the 4-serving meal, add 1 cup reserved pasta water. Add more, 1 tbsp at a time, to reach desired consistency.)
Add pasta and kale and toss over low heat until well-coated, 3 to 4 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
