For the pesto:
Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Place the bacon slices on a baking sheet lined with baking paper and bake them until crisp.
Set aside some baby spinach for the garnish. Put all ingredients for the pesto in the blender and mix into a smooth pesto.
Blanch the green beans in boiling, salted water and rinse them under cold, running water as soon as they are done.
Drain the beans.
Heat a dash of olive oil in a pan, add the gnocchi and fry over medium heat for 7 minutes until golden brown.
Mix the pesto with the gnocchi. Carefully stir in the beans and tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper.
Remove the pan from the stove and transfer the gnocchi to plates.
Garnish with the remaining spinach leaves and crumble in the bacon.
