In a large skillet, sauté Garlic until fragrant. Deglaze the pan with White Wine and let it reduce slightly. Add Heavy Cream, Pesto, and Sun-dried Tomatoes. Simmer for 5 minutes.

Pour the pasta mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
Sprinkle Mozzarella and Parmesan Cheese over the top.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until bubbly and golden brown.
