Trim eggplant; cut crosswise into 1/4-inch (5 mm) thick slices. Core and seed red and yellow peppers; cut into rings. Slice tomatoes thinly. Set vegetables aside.
In bowl, toss together onion, garlic and thyme. In separate bowl, toss together Swiss and mozzarella cheeses.
Arrange half of the eggplant, overlapping slightly, in lightly greased 8-inch (2 L) square baking dish. Sprinkle with half each of the salt and pepper. Top with red pepper and half each of the onion mixture, tomatoes and cheese. Repeat layers once, using yellow pepper. Sprinkle with bread crumbs; dot with butter.
