Prepare the Colavita Bowties by cooking in a large pot of boiling salted water according to the package instructions. Drain and drizzle with 1 tbsp Colavita olive oil to prevent sticking. Set aside until ready to use.
In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, cook the pancetta over medium-high heat until crispy, about 12 minutes. Remove from the heat. Using a slotted spoon, remove the pancetta and drain on paper towels.
In a large bowl, beat the eggs and milk together until smooth. Add the diced tomatoes, sun-dried tomatoes, salt and pepper.
Add the cooked pancetta, and the cooked pasta to the bowl. Mix well.
Fold in 1 ½ cups of each of the cheddar and fontina cheeses (the rest will be used for the top of the dish).
Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Oil a 9-by-13-by-2-inch glass or ceramic baking dish with olive oil and set aside.
Pour the pasta mixture into the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.
Bake until puffed and golden, 30 to 35 minutes.
Spoon onto plates, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve.
