Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 F. Cut the bread in to 1" slices and brush liberally with remaining 1/4 cup of UP Picholine. Toast the bread slices, oiled side up in a single layer on a baking sheet placed in the top rack of the oven for 12 minutes, or until golden brown. Cut the whole clove of garlic in half, and rub the toasted bread slices with the cut side of the garlic clove and set aside.
When the beans are almost tender, after about an hour of cooking, add the tomato and kale to the pot. Simmer for an additional 20 minutes, then add the zucchini and basil and simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
