Cook the Vegetables and Bacon: In a large pan, heat 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced peppers, red onion, and bacon to the pan. Sauté for about 10 minutes until the vegetables soften and the bacon crisps. Then, add the diced tomato to the pan and cook for an additional 10 minutes. Once cooked, set the mixture aside.
Prepare the Baking Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a medium-sized baking pan (smaller than a cake pan) with vegetable oil or shortening and set it aside.
Make the Egg Mixture: In a medium-sized bowl, beat the eggs until smooth. Add the plain Greek yogurt and melted butter to the eggs and mix until well combined. Then, add the sautéed vegetable and bacon mixture to the eggs and stir to blend everything.
Combine with Crackers and Cheese: In a small bowl, crush the Ritz crackers and mix them with cheddarand Parmesan cheese. Take about 3/4 of the cracker mixture and add it to the egg mixture, stirring well. Set aside the rest of the cracker mixture to sprinkle on top later.
Assemble and Bake: Pour the egg and vegetable mixture into the greased baking pan. If desired, top with the remaining cracker mixture and a bit more cheddar cheese. Bake in the oven for about 20 minutes or until the casserole is set and golden.
Cool and Serve: Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving. This dish is perfect for breakfast, especially paired with crispy hashbrowns, or enjoyed on its own for dinner!
