1. Preheat the oven to 350.

8. In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the fusilli.

10. Add the garlic and cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until just barely golden, 2 minutes.
11. Add the roasted tomatoes, kale and crushed red pepper and cook, crushing the tomatoes slightly, until the greens are just wilted, about 5 minutes.
12. Drain the fusilli, using the cooking water to warm the serving bowl & reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking water.
13. Add the pasta, the reserved cooking water and the sliced goat cheese to the skillet with the kale & maters and cook over moderate heat, tossing to coat the pasta.
